When Section Officer Harvey radioed Hoskins to drop his gear tonight, that wasn't what she intended.

Reduce flying weight at all costs they said to save fuel they said, leave the undercarriage behind they said, and the doors they said, But Hoskins I don't remember them saying leave the fuel in the bowser and all we get is 10 feet altitude.

Having not paid the landing costs the authorities clamped the Helicopter. however Hoskins did not notice the Parking Charge Notice on the windscreen, It must have blown off he told the owner
