So from today you are no longer our Air Gunner but apparently a Weapons Systems Officer, which sounds like a rehashed Navigator type role...so we better get you a map as well...

2nd from left standing holding map : No, no, no, the A303 is the best route, trust me

4th from left standing holding map: A303? But what about Stonehenge? A queue a mile long, rubber-neckkers... Give me the good old A30 every time!

rear cockpit holding map: A30? A303? Pah! M4/M5, motorway speeds, light traffic, Membury Services, no getting stuck in Crewkerne High Street, what more does a chap want?

Pilot: I say chaps. You do realise we are going to Cornwall by AIR...?

Don't worry Nav, after the fiasco when your last map blew away, I've arranged for Corporal Scroggins to come over and dope these ones to the wing.
