Yes I know that even though we were late on the departure skipping the pre flight checks is not SOP, but we should have enough fuel, air in the tyres and the oil warning light has not come on so good to go.

These airfield treasure hunts are way too clever for me; the next clue reads "Sounds like the widespread disgust incurred by someone as a result of their actions". What in the heck does that mean...?

10 seconds later the parachutist regretted turning in for a closer look at the helicopter; luckily his camera survived.

Yes sorry Mr Johnston, but the Prime Ministers instructions are quite clear

You will with immediate effect take the Ex Foreign Secretary into protective custody, fly to the very North of Scotland and secure him at Skyfall until Brexit is over and done with

"It says here 'First waggle stick around until helicopter is at sensible height. Then hold stick still. Then watch what the helicopter does, because if you want it to do that again, that is where you put the stick...'"

Spot the deliberate mistake competition.

Sunglasses should be worn by the pilot flying the helicopter, not the pilot reading a newspaper.
