Would You Fly The Poo Plane?

Hard to believe, I know, but have a look at the following press release from BHX Airport

Poo UK

Would you fly the Poo plane?

I really think they should have checked for an alternative name for the UK end of their operations! It's hard to believe that this isn't a wind-up, isn't it?
I'd fly for 'em though. It'd be great a dinner parties.
"So, who do you work for? BA? Virgin?"
"Nah mate, I work for Poo UK!"

It certainly catches the attention, that name! I presume it's a derivative of director Jimmy Pooni. It's tied up with Flyjet which is discussed at length elsewhere on this forum.

No doubt the captain, FO and FE will be referred to as:

Number 1
Number 2 and
the T'urd Officer

To all those pilots who complain about flying for peanuts: It could be worse.

Fly Poo!

Let's hope that with 200+ on a 757 for a long flight that all the lavatories are A-OK. Especially on the return leg with most passengers full of vindaloo! LOL.
