Got to say, I heard Tower give EgyptAir the number to call, I think after he was airbourne but it might have been in the queue. We both discussed how that's going to really focus your mind during the most critical part of a flight. Then went back to looking for robbers round the back of the cargo hangars... Anyway, I'd have already been ****ting myself and that is not going to help.

And.. back to the mechanics of the incursion. I know it was in daylight but that corner is a muddy fudger at the best of times. There is a morass of concrete, the marker boards are in the wrong place and, at night, no lights worth mentioning. There but for the grace of dog...
