Caption Competition Mk II

[SATCOS WHIPPING BOY]

Early pioneers of "round the world SOLO flying". Front seat punkhawallah and ground support don't count... Sure to inspire future generations.

[SATCOS WHIPPING BOY]

Don't worry, I know a guy in Hungary who will have this fixed in a day.

[Kiltrash]

Now if someone would only invent the Radio, we could call the AA for assistance.... (Aeroplane Association)

[Buster Hyman]

Omar, when we get back, we can tell the Belly Dancers we're Pilots!

[ShyTorque]

"Looks like we've lost a donk. The number two just ran off!”

[MPN11]

CO to Adj: “That’s buggered the 4-ship flypast. Re-plan for Vic, please.”)

[MPN11]

Mule Driver to colleague: “I hope you collected their fare. LOA doesn’t go far these days.”

[Kiltrash]

While working in the parts department at Hatfield Hoskins managed to get the aircraft out the factory gates one bit at a time

So much for flying a restored aircraft round the world to drum up trade for post-Brexit Britain.

[c52]

It's a pity the Prime Minister christened it The Spirit of Brexit in the full glare of publicity only a couple of days ago.

Given the cost of rope lashings, it proved cheaper to give a couple of rupees to human ballast.

“Well, Ranjit, the wicker seats are comfortable ... but we will never get the rest of the family in here.”

[MPN11]

“Sorry, Boss, it just ran away nose-down.”

”Don’t worry, Max, RAE will sort it out.”

[MPN11]

OK, that’s yet ANOTHER one ... we should restrict Royalty to just flying helicopters.

[c52]

"of course it's now stealthy - there's practically nothing there for radar to see. Or anyone else for all that matter."

In 100 years time they will go all dewy eyed when they see a Phantom on a low loader on the M25

Or
Certain PPRuNers would identify this aircraft, and the flying and disposal history within 24 hours not giving those from the colonies the opportunity to win

"It's interesting, Ranjit. No matter what the colour or religion, gravity affects them exactly the same as you and me."

[Dan Gerous]
