Failure to Follow Instructions Results in a WHIF Airliner

This is in the way of being an 'official' Whiff as it's a piccie culled from BA's in flight catalogue of stuff you can buy on board.

Can you believe an airline NOT catching it?

Alright, which one of you whiffers put that together for them?  Come on, fess up, it had to be one of you knowing that no one was gonna review the picture before using it.  I can just see it now.  "Give me a lousy little comission and no free tickets, I'll show you."

Great catch Kit.  I will have to review the Sky Mall mag more closely if I get to fly again.

You should see what happens when the undercarriage is deployed 


Fred!!, I told you those drawings were upside down

I can't claim the credit for finding this, a BA 747 Captain I know gave me the pointer to it.

Watch the 'In Build' section when the Revell 787 comes out........

How about a Boeing engineer friend being given a 'broken' 787 desktop model by another Boeing engineer?
Engineer 2 saying to my friend, "the wing, tail and this other part (engine) came off, if you can fix it you can
have the model, I got a new one." My friend, a model builder, looked at the 'broken' $40.00 dollar model
and said "sure", he happily returned to his desk clipping the 'broken' model back together. There
was slight damage to the engine mounting that required a little drop of CA for a permanent fix,
but, that was the only complex repair required. 

Yep, folks a Boeing 787 program engineer couldn't figure out how to re-assemble a model that simply clips together.

Hmm, i posted an easyJet 737-700 model in similar config about a year ago. Here are 2 photos of that model:

Some images, some of them inspirationally sexy and some of them distractingly so.....

Ahh now the 787 delays become clearer!
