Sir, there’s a hairy chap at the front desk, a Mr. Bigfoot. He says he wants his shoes back.

In FinnGlish "pair of Glosters" sounds like "pair of galoshes".

You certainly were fast off the mark. I felt like I got an entire history lesson when I saw it in the museum (not my photo, of course).
A couple I had in mind: "No, you can’t have it back for the Continuation War. You said you were Finnish."
And a more “original” pun: "They say our base was recaptured from a Ukrainian unit. That would explain why we keep landing on –ski’s".

But on to the actually funny captions:

c52 made me laugh with:

"Why is the cowling set forwards like that? Excellent question! Well, it's a rather nifty way of changing the trim. We just slide the whole motor region forwards and backwards."

And Wensleydale took second with:

Brian regretted asking for his new Gladiator to be painted in a Metallic Finnish.

But to my mind, Treadigraph took it home with:

What is it? No idea but it certainly adds a certain Gloster the place...

The trophy is winging its way east as we speak. Hope there's snow on the ground when it has to land.

Blimey, thank you Chu Chu! I also seem to have had a bit of a winning streak in recent weeks - may I throw it open to anybody who has a suitable pic to hand please?

NutLoose 19th Jan 2021 13:56

Please people putting up images, Pleeease put up images where there are people, preferably several or on the phone etc or even in and around aircraft, so people entering have a chance to put up captions, some of the entries of late have been hard to caption as a simple object in itself isn't very captionable...

NutLoose 19th Jan 2021 13:58

Putting one up for Tredi, you can score it :)

"Don't all push at once - there'll be another one along in a minute"

"Sure it's difficult to climb the steps with your suitcase. Wait a sec, I'll put the chopper into reverse and then it'll suck you up."

Chu Chu 19th Jan 2021 15:12

Lichael O'Meary, third rung from bottom, thinks "there's something to this boarding process."

"I'm sorry, sir, there's only one piece of hand baggage allowed. If you'll just return to check-in...."

Kiltrash 19th Jan 2021 15:26

This is the real reason in Asia the Great Oppressed wore face masks. There we all thought it was in case of Sars or Covid...

Kiltrash 19th Jan 2021 15:37

This is the Lo -Lo Loco flight. Standing room only, seats extra ...and don't even think about power or WiFi.
