OK, I'm a Nav but:

DZUS fasteners don't.
You undo 23 DZUS fasteners and the 24th won't.
The show stopper on the Det requires work in the shed - no shed.
You have your own aircraft key - FA501 for the Vulcan.
You carried a penny long after decimal coinage simply to jack up the aircraft.
Bodge tape for "BDR" is good for 300kts on a det. [It was the other crew's aircraft, honest, and it was their co that sliced the wing with a safety raiser]
