Because accepting the lowest tender had resulted in cheap and nasty low powered transmitters, UAV pilots were now expected to be a little more "up close and personal".

I was delighted by many of the entries but there can only be one winner.

The runner up is BPE with

Yes Minister, the new MOD "sew your own aeroplane" initiative is expected to greatly facilitate your efforts at reducing RAF capital costs going forward.

And the winner by the narrowest of margins, just 20 minutes later is Andytug with

"When you told me I'd be flying like a squirrel, Sir, I was rather hoping you meant the helicopter......"

The CST is on its way at about 10 mph with a guaranteed soft landing.
