Boys behaving like, well, boys!
Dale Amon (Belfast, Northern Ireland/Laramie, Wy)  Aerospace • Sexuality

The picture below has been making the rounds of the net aviation (and other) communities the last few days. The young Aussie lads chanced upon a motor race event whilst on coastal patrol. They went into a temporary hover all the better to communicate with numerous and luvly birds on the ground.

Someone caught them in the act and the photo went up on a professional pilot's site from whence it spread to other places.

The lads seem to be in a bit of hot water over it, no doubt due to complaints from the PC (Pulchritudinously Challenged) sector.

That sign seems like it wasn't put together in a hurry... Perhaps Aussies have more chances to use such a sign than us puritans in the US of A?

Clearly, they were merely seeking a view of that famed songbird, the breaded tit. Which is so often confused in the pub with its spiritual cousin, the bearded plaice.

Maybe they were looking for their old buddy Emerson. You know, Emerson Biggins.

Is that a first for Samizdata?

An item archived under aerospace AND sexuality?

Of far more interest: did any of the Sheilas down below actually show 'em? Photgraphic evidence please!
