Whilst we are in the Berlin Corridors, I did hear of a tale regarding an Andover that regularly flew the routes. It would fly as close as possible to the side of the corridor and sure enough, a MiG was despatched to confront the Imperialist Dogs. Andover chugging along with MiG on the wing tip. Andover slows, pops a bit of flap out and the MiG is not happy. Andover slows more and now the MiG is seriously worried; the burner flicking on and off and it's starting to wallow about. Andover drops full flap, puts the legs down, slows to a slow walk. MiG flicks into a stall. MiG never seen again. Urban legend?
