Back in the day....

......they used to point at the Air France 707 lurching into the sky on its way to Tananarive and cry "Angelais angelais" (Malagasay French was pronounced rather differently).

One visitor from the capital was delighted to find the source of a new phrase common in the natives of the city, "Qu'est que F*^&Ģing c'est?", delivered at max volume. The source was one of the groundcrew out at the airfield site.
