The VC10 does this as well...or maybe it is the cracks in the wings?

VC10 Display Routine:

Pitot Heat: On

Pitot Heat: Off

...so it can't be intentional.

Where is BEagle?

I will never forget the departure from Brize bound for the US , someone spotting the leaking wings, quick dive back to Brize...and the crew jumping off first leaving 130ish ICSC(L) studes wondering what is going on.

It was pure comedy.
