Grrr

"Ladys and gentlemen, each of the wings is about to fall apart. The back edges
will start sliding back and hang down like shirts flapping on the clothesline. The
front bits will separate themselves from the front of the wing, and they realy
looked cool when I was on 727s. Once this is all done youll see bloodey great
gaping holes all over the front and aft sections of the wing. On landing large
chunks of metal will come apart from the top of the wing to further bamboozle
any armchair thoughts of aerodynamics you might have, as well as a huge
noisey revving of the engines to add to your confusion as to why Im throttling
them up when at the same time Im trying to stop on the runway. Im not paid
enough to teach you airfoil theory and landing performance so just google it.
Thank you."
