Davita.....
Prepping a VIP for Maggie, the last finishing bits was the little lightweight "golf balls" that covered the fittings for folding the hat racks up. Unfortunately a leg had broken, we had no spares and the jet was about to depart, sticking it up with a lump of Bodge tape I told the boss, ” it'll do a trip".... it did, though the second trip from Heathrow it fell off and hit Maggie on the top of the head, I remember the Boss telling me in muffled tones.... How we laughed.

That's funny....I guess that was the only way she could get CROWNED!
Maggie came after my VC10 VIP F/Es tour but I kept in touch with a colleague who replaced me and he told me of a tale of when he went to take a pee he caught Maggie on the can with...as this Scotsman said "Her knickers doon!' She had forgotten to snub the door.
Not a pretty sight I imagine, and enough to put the crew off the baloney sandwhich they usually fed us.
