We watched that in Year 9 at high school, then it became one of the year's plays some of us performed in front of the parents. This was 1983. |

I did try and work out the practical implications of this for the aircraft, when I first heard it; you're looking at four areas of a few square inches with a quarter of a ton on each of them.
