leaving things on aeroplanes
Many years ago it was our custom on night flying nights to buy a NAAFI meat pie and take it flying. After landing you put your meat pie in the jet pipe, signed the aircraft in at the line shack and collected your nice warm pie to eat in the crewroom before the next trip
One night a student pilot forgot to collect his pie. The aircraft was checked over by the next pilot and set of down the runway, the caravan controller saw blazing bits falling out of the jet pipe and calls a stop. The pilot tries hard but fails to stop,before the barrier.
We don't do that anymore
