Watching the new RAF advert with the girl sitting on a lot of electrical cables like a bonfire trying to get the lights to work (really good heath and safety advert that for the RAF...Not)

I noticed the F35 in the later shots had "Warning do not cut canopy within three inches of the canopy frame" plastered all over it, now its probably to do with the MDC charge, but a do not cut within has the fireman in an emergency second guessing where he can safely cut.... Example, is that three inches above or below the canopy opening or both, so six inches????

what happened to simple but to the point CUT HERE with a line to delineate the place to cut, simple, concise and takes Trumptons finest out of the thought process equation when in an emergency situation. Why over complicate the simple????


BTW

It looks like he is engaging a boogie and he hasn't even taken off yet..

Reinventing the wheel

We do not intend to apply Squadron markings. Jets will constantly move around the Lightning Force, and the same jets won’t be on the same squadrons all the time-one team.
Just like Coningsby with the F-4. How long did that last?

Oh god! The spectre of centralised servicing rises from the grave. - "At this stage , I would eject!"

Off to pull a prop!
