...and next week on Blue Peter John Noakes and Shep'll build this amazing piece of kit, apart from a considerable quantity of sticky-backed plastic you'll need 394 million foil milk bottle tops, 275000 squeezy washing up bottles... bit of a step up from Val's Fairy Queen's Castle, eh?

Very clever these Japanese. It’s a Transformer, that turns into an oil rig! The Chinese will get the shock of their life if they go for Okinawa!
Like most committee’s designs , this one had one fatal flaw , you can take ammunition or food but not both .
The committee’s idea to convert the engines to borscht is almost as bad as feeding the airpeople avfuel .
Apparently , the nuclear powered version that drove electric engines never got off the runway at Pripyat . Not enough borscht or too much borscht, nobody knows for sure and nobody’s talking .
The conversion of the engines to run on vodka was a disaster as the crew consumed the vodka at twice the rate of engine consumption and the plane reached bingo fuel just taxing out to the runway some days .

Flying was the secondary problem. Number One was where to park it.

In view of the weight issues, the need for 144 Navigators was revised.
