A serial publication ofunfortunate event : a confused helicopter pilot accidentally gives a signaling that he ’s been commandeer . British RAF fighter are scrambled so chop-chop to shoot the affair down , they go ultrasonic . Brits down below veneration explosions and earthquake . Boom .
The Aviationist recountsthe air force farce , which hold up down yesterday over English sky :
At 18.10LT on Thursday Apr. 12 emergency agency telephone set replacement boards start receive reports of a big bang or explosion that could be heard all over the southerly UK .
It guide a couple of hours before the reasonableness for the mysterious bang was made public .
The frightened public had no thought that bang was due to a group of Typhoon jets on 24/7 watch against terror threats . When the word fail out ( erroneously ) that a whirlybird had been hijacked ( how does that even find ? ) , they roared off to stop . Roared off so tight that they tally mach 1.2 , and cracked a giant transonic boom that literally shook the footing below : “ Even the British Geological Survery was contacted to see if the UK had suffered an quake . ”
Of course , this was all for naught . There was no hijacking . The chopper cowcatcher realized the severe bollocking he ’d just cause and reversed his hijacking alarum , but of course by then it was too previous — he ’s just lucky he did n’t get a projectile up his rotor coil . But , hey , bravo to the RAF — they’ll certainly need that itchy transonic trigger finger when Olympics hysteria hits London . [ The Aviationist ]
