In order for Guinness Word Records to officially ratify the record attempt on the worlds biggest ever paper aeroplane, not only did it have to fly but it could only be launched by hand!

It's the thought of a someone sat up front 'on brakes' whilst this is happening, whistling fake turbine 'sounds' as they go along, that really tickles me!

In a bid to undercut Ryanair, SDA are trialling superglue on the trailing edges to get another 23 passenger "on" each flight.

SDA punters, fed up with parking on a stand, decide to take matters into their own hands & head towards a vacant aerobridge.

The hydrogen powered plane while great for the environment, was proving a little tricky to handle on the ground.

'Come on, I'm sure it'll work just like my airfix kit - push the wings stubs into the slots in the fuselage and hold firmly in place until the glue dries'.

A few photos back....we made mock of Muffie with a Pink Fly Swatter and all got a good laugh putting a caption on the photo. This young lady holding a similaar pink swatter was killed in action. Let's laugh at the swatter but remember where the photo was taken.

SASless,
No, sorry. Full and due respect to those serving and losing their lives abroad but this is a caption competition thread not a memorial thread. If we're to start linking every inanimate object appearing to memorials for those lost then where does it end?
There's a time and a place for rememberance but this thread isn't it.
