Seem to remember asking that question as the last one at the end of various ground cat checks:

"You lift to the hover and the a/c rolls left and pitches nose down. What has happened?"

After much umming and aaahing from the victim and random guesses about tail winds and rigging problems it was time to put them out of their misery

"No, you've left the GPU attached. Cat over, well done etc etc" (I only asked it if they had done fairly well, seemed a bit harsh to do it and then tell them that they had failed!)

Not sure they all appreciated my oh-so-funny joke.
