The AA had no choice but to help park it safely as they didn't routinely carry replacement rubber bands in the van.

"When those cnuts at the recruiting office said they had a slot for me as a taildragger, I was expecting to pilot a Spit with the BBMF!"

'Can you just have a 'yellow jacket'?! Oh no, son, you can not just have a 'yellow jacket'. These Hi-Visibility, BS234 compliant, all weather, marshalling safety jackets are like a badge of rank my boy. These little faux gore-tex beauties have to be earned, and this is where you start paying . . . in sweat!'

Just like the ears of naughty little boys, the tail wheel is the best place to grab a naughty little aircraft.

Thanks Schlonghaul. I have been saving a picture just for this occasion, but as it is a variation of yours, I shall go with this instead.

Taken at the end of the Leuchars 04 Airshow


Judging next weekend, or earlier if it grinds to a halt.
