There is that lovely story (how true it is I don't know) but it would have been maybe late 60's / early70's at North Denes when apparently the Old Man was doing one of his "pep" talks and a certain Archie Yates is reputed to have said during question time whether the BUA bit of the Bristows stood for Bristows Underpaid Aviators. He was fired on the spot but rehired the following days.
Like most of these stories, I can't vouch for it being true as I didn't arrive at North Denes on the Wessex until 1971 but these things sometimes have a ring of truth about them
