Well Sir, the landing was very smooth then we had to stamp on the brakes when the NAFFI wagon crossed on the lazy.

It all went wrong just after the Engineer told the pilot "Aw - go on. Give her a go".

Famous co-pilot quotes number 21:


"I couldn't have stalled on take-off because I hadn't done any HASELL checks".

Look, Hoskins, when I said "leave it alone" late on the last approach, I did not mean leave out the round-out. I was telling you not to re-tie your shoelace right then.

Now, I think we need another circuit. Where is the engine start check list?
