"Yup, we need holy blessings to get the Jag airborne. If it's hot and high, like Vegas, we have to 'sacrifice' a virgin too. At least, that's what we tell the girls in the bar the night before"

"Stick your wing

And if there's any lingering doubt about that WW1 wisdom, see "From Go to Whoa", currently on P.1 of Military Aircrew...D.

Finally the Russians had found a way to disable RAF Coltishall. Put a cardboard box on the runway and all the cats would jump into it.

(Seriously, where is this place, and what is the thing sticking up ahead ? All I can think of is a Fire Section Hose-Drying tower. Any ideas ?)
