"And this cable is. .. ermm . . ..something to do with the groundcrew I think . . .. or at the very least the Air Engineer . . . . But if anyone asks you what it is, just say "GPU" in a knowing and convincing manner and then go back to your maps. . . . . .. . .Basically, as a WSO, don't go near it. Please."
