In the early 1970's, John Inglis undertook a trip to the United States and it took place not too long after the Palestinians started the trend of aircraft hijacks.
In effort to keep pace with modern trends, several members of the Drawing Office designed, created and presented to John a little cardboard-boxed Hijack Kit in a plain brown wrapper.
This was given to John before he boarded the plane, with a request not to open it until the aircraft was on its way. The fact that he returned safely (and was able to keep the kit) is testament to the relaxed attitude towards such practical jokes at that time. If this were to happen today, all hell would break loose!
Michael Yarrington was the Eng. Dept. photographer back
in the old days and is still a dab hand at the art.

Bill Dyson and Peter Sait.
Peter is another who looks as if he has just stepped out of 1975.
