Flying B,
But a wing coming off an RAF Blackburn Beverley, just after liftoff at RAF Khormaksar, Aden, was attributed to mice.

More specifically, the urine from an infestation, undetected, had caused such corrosion, undetected, as gave this result.

The remains of the poor old girl served a diving platform, for as long as the poms stayed in Aden.

The headlines in London, at the time, were really very funny.

Tootle pip!!
