Nutloose.

You're right about the location but your chronology is way off. Han solo lived a long time ago. Quite some distance from here as it happens.

@116i Indeed they don't. Not even for a 'Bread' van.

If you reverse at speed in a J2 the door stop will come through the back window and leave you hanging there...

We have given up on SS GB.

By the way, there are HASs used in the old Ultimate Force or whatever the SAS thingy was.
Shurely none at "where they are based" are there?

And I can also confirm the door locking bars on a HAS can slice through both the inner and outer skins of a bowsers tank full of fuel ..... I can also confirm a Flight Sgt with a sandbag is no Little Dutch Boy... however he did try, even though the hole was longer than the said bag by some margin..

Perhaps noone else is old enough to notice that the 1940s Jaguar (Episode 1) had TWIN rear lights!! Probably sealed beam headlights instead of P100s as well? Very forward looking, were Jags!!
