"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, First Officer Douglas Richardson here. Just to let you know, we’re making our final approach now into what I am fairly sure is Fitton airfield..unless it’s a farm..or just possibly the A45. It’s not the sea, because that’s blue. I should perhaps explain that Captain Crieff and I have a sportsman-like little bet on today about who can fly the best after drinking a litre of Vodka through a straw. The Captain went first. You may have noticed the takeoff run was a little bumpy, particularly over the golf course. Now it’s me to land, just as soon as I decide, which of these two runaways to aim for. And I’m happy to tell you that I feel lucky. So on behalf of all your crew today, may I just say, geronimo!" — Douglas (via assassins-journal)

• MARTIN: Uh, Douglas, he asked me. Listen carefully, Arthur. The wing is curved on top but flat on the bottom. When it meets the air, its split in two. The air that goes over the top has further to go, so it has to go faster to keep up with the air underneath, that reduces pressures above the wing, giving us a lift.
• ARTHUR: Ah, fantastic! Thanks, Skipper. I, I totally get it now.
• MARTIN: You are welcome.
• ARTHUR: Except, why does it have to?
• MARTIN: Why does it what what?
• ARTHUR: Why does the air on the top have to keep up the air at the bottom? Why don't they just..split up?
• DOUGLAS: For the sake of the kids?

• ARTHUR: I call it my orange platter.
• DOUGLAS: Really? I wonder why.
• ARTHUR: Oh, because everything in it..
• DOUGLAS: Yes..Arthur, I can see why.
• MARTIN: What makes the mashed potato orange?
• ARTHUR: Cooking it in the same saucepan I used to curry the baked beans.

We could go to Bristol, I believe people do.

• Martin: Sorry, chaps, looks like we'd better divert to Bristol.
• Arthur: Bristol? Why?
• Martin: Fitton's got a runway closure. We'd have to hold for twenty minutes
• Arthur: But Bristol, that's miles away.
• Martin: Yes... Luckily enough though, we are in an aeroplane, specially designed to be good at going miles away quite quickly.

If MJN is anything, it is an air dot.
