Caption waiting for Judgement day, Artee where are you?

Back to normality

Climate change protesters discover that Acid Rain, even in the desert, works quickly
or
The gift shop at AMARC had to source more bits to sell off to the public at vastly inflated prices
or
The volunteer at the museum was disciplined for washing and polishing the main attraction too often and vigoursly

Sorry - work n stuff. Some brilliant responses to a not very caption friendly photo.

3rd - Treadigraph:
"Scouse spotters visit AMARC and turn a pre-conception about their foibles on its head... "

2nd - c52 (with a reference to Tempest?)
"Forget the label; it's just to spare our allies' blushes. This is what the British MoD got for $5 bn when they asked BAe to build them a new jet."

but the stealthy winner is 622:
"Its so top secret...even all the other aeroplanes had to wear blindfolds...."

The CST is on its way to you - you'll have to look carefully, it's been stealthed.

Blenkinsopp's cunning plan to get into the RAF Museum for free was obviated by the lack of an admission fee...

After narrowly avoiding a cloud-shrouded mountain goat, the Handley-Page aeroplane bomber crew was confronted at their 12 o'clock position by a poor man who was rocketing skyward after his hot air balloon had exploded.

ffortescue-Smythe was glad he donned a particularly voluminous pair of bags and his guaranteed no-break safety braces that day...
