I'd better mark it now because I'll not be able to tomorrow

Honourable mentions

sealoO "Anyone got some jumper leads"

Nutloose "Don't worry... I have it on good authority from the Captain that the good engine is providing us with more than enough power to safely carry us to the crash site"

treadigraph "Are you enjoying the flight Mr O'Leary?"

Hydromet "Fresh from their rail tour of India, the Red Devils demonstrate new techniques that they learned while away."


But the winner is:


Nutloose "With the budget cute, the Red Arrows were forced to operate one aircraft only"
