I thought you said these flat tops are bigger than they look on approach.

Major Dawlish considered his latest invention was sure to get him a part in "Those Magnificent Men..." Lt Barrington wasn't quite so certain...

As usual, many great entries.
NutLoose had me grinning a couple of times with "Early Air Bus trials reveal passenger capacity problems," and "I think we will call this caravan an airstream."
But there can only be one winner, and I have a weak spot for acronyms. So the CapCom trophy will soon be winging its way back across the Atlantic to MPN11 for "Boeing demonstrate their Motor Car Assistance System to applauding FAA inspectors."

Oh, W00T ... and thanks Chu Chu (Alexandria VA has been a regular vacation destination for us since 2000!).
Have at this, if you're brave enough ...

Chaps. I'm a little confused. The Tail Gunner gave me this to bite on, and now he says he's going back for a "run up"???

Well as you haven't got anything in your mouth, Smithers, I'm afraid it has to be you...

What I said was "when the elevator bites, you can raise the tail." Not "when you bite the elevator . . ."
