BEA present the world's first methane powered aircraft. Unfortunately methane production is running faster than the engines can burn it, giving a serious risk of inflight explosion.

Following the success of the first methane-powered aircraft, the Royal United Services Catering Experimental Section is commissioned to find a way to get humans to produce methane in usable quantities.

STOP PRESS...... Members of the Pprune forum killed attempting to milk a bull in a vain attempt to win the CS Trophy, A member of the forum commented it was a seminal moment in the competition.

The agent distinctly said ground handling equipment was available, but I'm beginning to think I got a bum steer.

Amazing, they're here on time. How did you manage that?

Easy. If you want Hoskins to fly Herefords to Jersey, tell him he's taking Jerseys to Hereford.
