"We need more string and wire, Flight Sergeant!"
Bloggs was only partly successful in exploring the potential of the Hart for ground-attack. Sure, that piece of ground had been soundly attacked, but.....

THIS IS NOT A CAPTION.
In succesive 24 hr periods since putting this pic up, there have been 31, 21, 13, and 5 (by my calculation) suggested Captions.
Boom will be lowered at 1800 GMT tonight.

Beware the Ides of March !

You've all Done Very Well, and it is after much mental anguish and burning of the midnight oil, that I pronounce as follows:
Honourable Mention must go to:
Big Pistons Forever for: "That's why you never let the Staish fly alone !"
SASless for: "Fitters - always checking out Hind Ends !"
and: "All it was....was a simple change of a flat tire...but when the Officers got involved.....well you know how that goes!"
Pontius Nav and MPN11 for doing the well-worn Hoskins Round-out to death.
MPN11 again, for the (feeling): "I blame Air Traffic, Sir - they gave me clearance to land !"
[well, we carry the can for everything else, so why not ? - hence: "Never mind the wind and rain - Air Traffic's in the s**t again !" (fellow feeling D.)]
But No.2 in line astern is:
Penny washers for: "Gravity always wins !" (a variation of my old US flying instructor's: "Gravity never lets up !"
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
And the undoubted Cock of the Midden is (roll of drums):
andytug for: "Sure, he's a hopeless pilot - but his Hart's in the right place !"
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Take it away, andytug, with an old man's blessing !

The green button launches the nuclear attack missile towards the American warships, and the red button lowers the undercarriage - unless they've been wired up wrong in which case the red button.....
