Geriaviator,
".... But once past the Isle of Man there was nothing over 300ft between me and Birmingham...."
But Snowdonia is not all that far away to the West !
Fantome,
Was an apocryphal tale of the time when waste water from the galley and toilets was vented to atmosphere. Airliner in freezing conditions accumulates quite a slab below. On long finals to LHR in warmer air, this unpleasant iced lollie unsticks, goes down through a roof somewhere in W. London, and lands on (nicely made) bed.
Probably just a tale,
Danny.
EDIT: Apparently the folk were out at work, so the stuff had all melted when they got in that evening. D.
