Hi Steve! Very cool shots man!

As I always like to take the oppourtunity to tell a story, and as I have a good one about the jetstream I shall share it! :D (if thats ok)

Ok, so I had been to my friends house and his Dad was driving me home. He had previously worked for BAe Systems, and had lots of stories. He enjoys flying and managed to blagg a weekend in Scotland, at the Prestwick branch of BAe to look at the jetstream in development.

The weekend involved him looking around the aircraft, but in the end he again managed to blagg his way onto a flight. This was a rushed arrangement and he had no time to use the toilet before he boarded for a test flight over the Atlantic.

The aircraft took off and flew an hours flight over the sea, and after half an hour his bladder was about to cave in. On asking a crew member how far off landing they were he recieved the answer 'We are about half way there'

After the hour they landed, but half way down the runway the engines fired up and they lifted off again! This time they were to do the same procedure, but with stall tests over the ocean. In the end, his bladder could take no more and he had to relieve himself in a bottle, in front of 2 RAF officers, a Cheif Executive of BAe and the test crew.

They landed two hours later, and other than the pains in his lower body, he really enjoyed the weekend! :D

Thanks Guys and great shots Steve! ;-)
