  5. The guy was French, leave him alone.

    He probably saw another plane in the sky and wanted to surrender ...

  6. I did laugh. Even though I probably shouldn't have.

  7. I bet the pilot is glad they didn't :confused: And the French Air Force for that matter, with their £40m jet. o_O

    I seem to remember watching a documentary about the 2 John's shot down in a Tornado during the Gulf war. I think they said they did a 3-2-1 countdown before each pulling the ejector seat realeases. That was a long time ago though. :thinkingface:

  9. The book by John Nichol and John Peters is a decent read.
