OK, Sunday night, time for the results. (and I hate grading! :) )
The different angles to interpreting the situation were wonderful, and I laughed. A lot. Especially imagining the tough guys (supposedly?) in the Mrs. Ex-Ascot's suggestion, and the inverted roll being executed :D. Some good ideas for cuts and defence as well.
The 'Squadron SCRAMBLE!' was almost the best. The very best one was just more optimistic and uplifting- implying they still haven't lost hope to do that (reach V1) given they keep on trying hard.
So, PHXPhlyer :YMPARTY:

I'll just hide here until they decide if they want to sentence me for belching and heating the world up, or award for farting and stuff for biogas from the other end.

Little did they know that the bull was dangerous because it kept knocking over the 'Bridge Out' sign.

Actually, then being specific about cows and bulls would be needed?
Which reminds me about Jeremy Clarkson moaning about signs to indicate 'moose loose' when there are none in sight, and his suggestion: Why don't they put the sign on the moose?
