Worthington-Smyth's tenure as a Water Bomber Pilot was thought to be short lived.

He confused the Cockpit Ventilation Scoop for the Water Scoop!

Time for judgement to be passed. Who is going to do it - Buster or Conso?

Well with a plethroa oF great contenders- listed in posted order

treadigraph 44155 “ The sink rate's quite high on this Boeing... “

danny42C 44181 ”He's vanished off the Radar " .... "Never mind - we'll get him on the Sonar !"

danny42C 44184 "It's bad enough when you see a mountain goat in the cloud ahead - but a dolphin is far worse !"

and
queaker 44207 “ When I said I preferred water cooled engines.... “

and due to the uncertain air or water delivery methods I am sending the valuable CST trophy for FIRST place by Pony Express to

Drum Roll . . .
danny42C 44184 "It's bad enough when you see a mountain goat in the cloud ahead - but a dolphin is far worse !"
andf the optional hand protective glove to

treadigraph 44155 “ The sink rate's quite high on this Boeing... “
And third place is a tie with

danny42C 44181 ”He's vanished off the Radar " .... "Never mind - we'll get him on the Sonar !"
and

squeaker 44207 “ When I said I preferred water cooled engines....
When Danny42C receives his trophy- I hope he willcome up with a suitable response ..in this millenium ..

CONSO

Well done everyone!

What's this about a glove?

And do Danny and Squeaker both get a tie?

Thanks, CONSO! - This is an unexpected honour - I'm covered in blushes ! (and apologise for the delay). But I'm sorry to say that I must pass the laurel wreath and CST on to treadigraph (whose caption was much better than mine, anyway), because:

I cannot Post a suitable pic at the moment - take it away, tread - with an old man's blessing !

Danny.

Nah, you are by far the most deserving holder of the CST Danny!

Herewith a pic unashamedly non-PC and stolen from the jokes thread in Jetblast. I do hope it hasn't appeared before...

Danny, would you do the honours when it comes to judging the next CST winner please?
