An alternate course of events

"In one of the (Tornados)=RAAF F111's there is an emergency. An automated alarm is sounding. The navigator instructs the pilot to dump superfluous fuel, light the afterburner and gain height to ‘buy’ extra time.

A torrent of high octane aviation gasoline cascades towards terra firma , ignited by the engines - down onto where MacDonald stands smoking. With a whoosh, he is evaporated.

Emergency under control, Flight Lieutenant Siân MacDonald requests her navigator plot a course for RAF Lossiemouth, and home.





Voila, problem solved, dramatic effects intact!!
