Sallys T*Ts
 

A excolleague whose brother flew GR3s told me a story that in Shrops/Mid Wales there was a way point called Sallys Tits. Not sure whether he was spoofing or not.

Same time he said there was a farmer who wrote Piss Off RAF on his barn in same area which had the opposite effect in ensuring people came to see it.

True or False ?

Oh yes....both true!
 

Always wondered who Sally was though, I heard a story that it was a Shawbury Air Traffic girl!:ok:

IIRC the barn wore "Piss off Biggles".:D

Web End, was a spoof RP I heard about from a Canberra flyer..

Not sure about that but do remember 'EJ is a To**er' on the shore of the Loch Neigh water sports ISOs roof - EJ being a Lynx jock from 5

Sally's Tits are the Clee Hills near Ludlow.

I heard a story that a certain Maritime Sqn painted their Sqn Number on their hanger roof in roman numerals. One night, personnel from a similar type Sqn crept onto the roof and added a couple of extra letters. The result was the word "CXXTS" on the said hangar.

(off thread, but a similar thing was tried with a French Mirage during GW2. The White UN on the tail was to have been modified by the addition of the letters C..TS, but the raiding party was discovered by security before it could take place).

There was an RAF publicity photo of a DHFS Griffin flying past Sally's T!ts but I can't find it at the mo.

Discussed in 2004 here on Pprune.

FG

Classic photo.:ok:

Rear seat is also having a gander at it.

Thanks Airborne

Lot more Smut around then:)

Just goes to show how bright the Welsh are! How many more aircraft flew down that valley after the paint job I wonder? Every one of my students got to see that barn!

P!ss off Biggles may or may noy have been my target on my FNT at Valley.

Am sure I hit it first time, but was told a re atttack was in order ;)

(Was about the only thing I did hit from then on into Tac Wpns........;))

and not forgetting the witches t*t close to Helmsdale coasting in en route to pork chop loch and moon country .......ah what fun!

and then there are the tumuliform Wittenham Clumps, just south east of the Wittenhams in Oxfordshire, locally known as
Mother Bunch's Buttocks

Not sure who Mother Bunch was.

IIRC the Barns co-ordinates were plotted by a PR Canberra and transmitted to all FJ Units. These co-ordinates were then entered in their aircrafts Nav suite so that all one had to do to update ones navigation suite was to overfly the Barn and press the update button.

Of course that could just be hearsay!!

As an ex-Brat, I am reminded of a tale told by one of the Halton instructors, more than 40 years ago now. He was on a Shack squadron and they were taking part in a big maritime exercise somewhere in Australasia. As well as the Brits there were squadrons from Oz and NZ.

The said base had a huge water tower and during the first night of the exercise the Kiwis nipped out and painted a huge Kiwi on the side of the tower. The following night the Aussies nipped out, painted over the Kiwi and replaced it with a huge image of a kangaroo. Naturally, on the third night everyone was full of expectation - what would the Brits do? Much to everyone's surprise, the following morning the kangaroo was still there. However, on looking more closely they saw a ball and chain painted around the kangaroo's leg!

HO HO
 

Years ago whilst test flying at Woodford, Al Hegarty wrote his car off on "Andrew's Knob" :ooh:...fnarr!

(It's between Whaley Bridge and the Avro factory)

Don't forget the tartan titties
 

'Selkirk Tits' have re-erected many a lost-studes' toppled gyros, too.

It survives on pprune ... ;) (albeit perhaps an older version)
