The Deux Ponts was the most abomination of an aeroplane known to man! But it provided a classic RT exchange at Heathrow shen it taxiied past a cul-de-sac in which a TWA 707 had pushed back:

TWA: Say what's that that just passed us?
ATC: It's a Deux Ponts
TWA: I don't care what you call it, it looks like a cow
DP: It may look like a cow but it flies like a bird!
