I’d love to be able to say for sure either way, but recall on demand is an ability I more often envy than perform. Traipsing into traffic wouldn’t surprise me, though. Thanks again!

The famous image of George Aird ejecting from a stricken Lightning jet. The jet is pointed at the ground, the pilot's chute hasn't filled despite him being alarmingly close to the earth, and in the foreground a distracted tractor driver is about to have an agricultural accident if he's not careful. I've watched the public information films. The photographer was a guy called Jim Meads, and he captured a classic shot here. 

Everyone survived, btw.

Be honest. THIS is how most of you arrived on Blue Sky:

Oh, quite. Sorry, I add links out of habit for anyone else reading with an interrobang over their head. I’m not expecting it to be some bolt out of the blue for anyone name-dropping Myers, Watson et al. :)

Handy; I’d never have known otherwise.
