Islander queries - not THOSE Islanders
I did squelch my initial impulse to add "why do they sell hot dogs packets of 10 and the buns in packets of 8?"
It all looks like a simple way of getting around the problem of flying a UAV in controlled airspace.
And you have to admit that the Trislander was ingenious. Much easier than a conventional trimotor.

But the Emerald Toilet is now just another part of the UK, surely.

Thanks for the tips on etiquette in the land of Guinness, WG13.
I'd been all set to wear a Parachute Regiment T-shirt while strolling down the Falls, and had thought that the discount to ask for was an SAS one if you are in South Armagh.....

Sorry squire. Thought for a moment you were engaging in 'banter'. I had not for one moment thought that you would have taken my comment "But the Emerald Toilet is now just another part of the UK, surely." seriously. I should have put [heavy sarcasm]But the Emerald Toilet is now just another part of the UK, surely[/heavy sarcasm] perhaps?
Do lighten up, chum.

JN, WG13 et al:
Must say I'm not terribly happy with all this "Emerald Toilet" craic. We may have had one or two issues in the recent past, but mostly we can talk things over these days over a nice pint of Guinness (real Guinness, not tourist Guinness, aka Extra Cold).
Having said that, although you could walk quite happily down the Falls these days (if you can get past all the American tourists on their guided tours of the gable wall "Murials" (sic)), I would leave that sqn memorabilia at home......
Anyway, did somebody mention the mighty grey bomber somewhere in this thread?
Drink! ****! Erse! Girls! etc

Why do public schoolboys go to private schools?
When an American says he will be somewhere 'momentarily', why does he then stay around?
(Not a jibe at Iraq or Godknowzwheristan!)
