Seeing that De Havilland Venom reminded me of my Aerospace Apprentice days as there was a whole Venom or Vampyre in the training school, they'd parked it right by the Stores and the favourite trick as Apprentices was to get talking to someone queuing for the Stores to talk underneath the tail while a mate would be sat in the cockpit ready to yank the joystick to smack the victim on the head, it caused so many injuries they eventually locked the tail in place

No, British Aerospace Broughton, this was the early 80's though so it may not be there any more, place has changed a lot! I did hear a while back that they were thinking of refurbishing it but then they crashed the Mosquito there and not heard anything since.

I wished I lived in a world where I didn't know who Rebecca Black or the Jonas Brothers were. Must be a nice place.
