Slightly off topic.

I recall an incident in the book 'Chickenhawk' where an Army Huey disappeared into the jungles in Vietnam never to be found. Signal went round asking if anyone had anything on it.

Apparently there were so many Suppliers saying they all had loads of stuff on it some wag said something like 'No wonder it crashed it must have been carrying about 40 tons'
