"Passengers in forward facing seats should check their pockets for missing change before leaving the aircraft. Passengers in rearward facing seats should remain securely strapped in until further advised."

OR

"This is your last warning, Hoskins. You do NOT need nose up trim for taxying or parking this aircraft."

Those guys at ground equipment must be switched on. Who would've known to put such a long cable in a GPU

No amount of perspective tricks will get me to believe you can just go up the steps, hop on the wing and go in through the hatch.

Hi all , my efforts would have been along the lines of

In an effort to max the fuel available for the Lightning, ( not the poncy F35b), the refuelling officers look to adapting a good idea with ketchup bottles from the enlisted men’s mess.

Or

Having lost the wheel jacks Sgt Nutty comes up with a cunning plan for the routine tyre change

Or

Having flown into Liverpool Airport the captain was disappointed to see what had happened overnight

Or

Bruntingthorpe are surprised that BOB and gotten a little over excited last night

Thanks and off to look through your Captions

A superb turn out and many thanks to all for your efforts

Looks like 3 of my efforts would have been already covered

Special mention to Conso and MPN for both having similar ideas at the same time, JATO and LIFT

However the votes are in, counted and verified by the Leave campaign and in 3rd place we find Andy with :- "I told you it was a bad idea to put the bar at the back of the plane.... "

In second and runner up Buster with:- Usain Bolts private jet.

However the deserved winner with a chuckleometer of 100 is Satco with :- Who let Diane Abbott do the load calcs?

Anyone who does not know about Diane Abbott's numeracy skills in high office? think of Donald Trump

You have the honour Satco take care of the trophy

Thank you Kiltrash, very much appreciated. I shall find a suitable image in the next 15 mins or so.
As always I shall look after the Coffman Starter Trophy with pride and fond memories.

For anyone unfamiliar with Diane Abbott, search the web for hr blooper videos ;-). The best description of her I have seen is this:
Imagine that all the village idiots decided to leave their villages and start their own village; Diane Abbott would be that village's idiot.



Here you go.
