...A couple of days ago we had an RAF Tristar visit and the RAF flight ops people filed the flight plan with the aircraft type as TRIS, (they swore that this was a military designator). When it reached the Brussels flight planning computer it blew a gasket! A Trislander at FL330!!! Well, I suppose they do both have three engines but you'd never get an L101 into Alderney!. .. .Spiney
