Pilot X-overs?

Just wondering if anything further has happened re the rumour that the F3 back seat shortages were going to be filled by Jaguar pilots hoping to to get to the wonder jet?

What's the best/funniest rumour you've heard this week?

It is just that. A rumour!
I can assure you that no Jaguar pilots will end up in the back seat of anything except training aircraft!
If you want to make a rumour believeable you could at least have said GR4! Good God man.

You nearly had him I think

Don't think most F3 drivers would feel comfartable spending long periods of time with a jag mate right behind them.....................incoming.

Thought it would have been Phantom pilots who'd be really uncomfortable about a Jag mate behind them!

Gentlemen.

Do you know what?
I was originally going to post some sort of peurile remark about not wanting to get into an aeroplane with a fag driver and decided against it as it was a little obvious.
However, since you started it I would just like to add that I think all F3 pilots smell of wee.
So there.

Am I missing something?

Shurely the Jag mate behind you banter is not about the Blau-On-Blau but about the same scurolous story that lead to...

"Don't Bend Down When A Jag Mate's Around,
Or You'll Get a Willie Up Your" ask

me the rest later.

Or am I just a sad old Jagophobic man with an udder obsession?

Good.

Nice to see that in the current climate where defence and single service issues are up crap creek, the Utterly Utterlies are even able to turn in on themselves.

Well done.

Loser

That's quite right, Tracey. We are quite obviously on the verge of ripping each others throats out. With this level of banter how can we possibly be expected to work with each other, let alone all the other services.
Tool.

We utterly utterlies call it banter. It's a form of fun based on pi$$-taking. It's really quite widespread. Another 3 or 4 countries and it could become an Olympic sport. We'd win.

From the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary:
1690- Wanton or humorous ridicule; now usually good natured railery.
Olympic banter event is a good idea; I'm sure Kazakhstan would sign up. In fact, I think that the host country of each Olympics can establish a new event. Don't see the Chinese doing Banter in the next go around, but when London hosts...
