I was posted down the Falklands once. When my 'holiday' was over I was heading back to the UK on one of the RAF Tri-Stars. Unbeknownst to me some of the Tornado pilots had also finished their tour of duty at the same time and were on the same flight.
We'd just taken off and were heading out over Port Stanley when I looked out the window at the port wing (that's the left) and nearly shat myself when I saw a Tornado sitting about 3 foot above our wing with the pilot waving and thumbs upping. Guy next to me had to calm me down and said it was some weird RAF ritual. Apparently there was another one on the other side. Bloody pilots!!!

And bonked a few of the Sheila's before disembarking I supposeOriginally posted by wobbegong View PostPussies!
Real Aussie men would leaped onto the wing of the passing plane, torn the fuselage door open, forced their way into the cockpit before overcoming the devilish swarthy types therein, radio'd a short, sharp "everthings bonza" to the pursuers, then banked it round to land unscathed at the nearest airfield.

Pussies!A number of office workers decided to evacuate their skyscrapers after watching in alarm as a passenger plane flew low over Sydney harbour chased by an air force fighter.
