I thought that the instruction "Enemy Aircraft - Shoot down the Reds, gather points" was a bit unpatriotic.

What a handsome chap the pilot is. Are they all like that?

Sounds perfectly sensible to me. How are the evil enemy pilots supposed to fly if they've got nowhere to hang their jackets? They can't go araound looking creased!
