Between the "There I was at 30 thousand feet, nothing on the clock but the maker's name, and that was in Bantu ... " and the "When I was on Shackletons ... " stories I really think I have heard them all, but do not let that stop anyone from sharing
I am reminded of the conversation we had in the BRC with a short ex-RAF Buccaneer pilot (I say conversation - he was talking at us). On asking if either of us had done 600 kts at 40 ft, you paused thoughtfully for a moment and said "no, but I've done 40 kts at 600 ft - does that count?"
