A 15-year-old boy from the Urals suffered acute frostbite after riding the wing of a Boeing-737 plane on a two-hour flight from Perm to Moscow, Russian radio station Mayak reported on Monday.

I saw this posted on another forum - its just a bad translation. The boy had hidden inside the wheel wells of the aircraft, and wasnt clinging onto the wing as the translation suggests
yeah I did think that clinging to a wing at 900 kmph and 10 km in the air for 2 hours was a bit beyond a 15 year old. Now if it had been GKirk....

I say we should give it a try. We bundle Gkirk in the back of a car, take him to the airport and tie him to the wing of an aircraft.
Only trouble is, which airport do we use? Edinburgh or Glasgow?

Now then, what do we have here...
Prestwick would be preferable
