The longest aircraft in the world- the Airlander 10, nicknamed the flying bum- has crash landed in a field in Bedfordshire on it’s second test flight.

Oh the humanity!

 “It was flippin’ hilarious!,” said Adrian Piggs, an eye witness, “It looked like Trump sitting down really fast!”

“What a crack- geddit?” said Derek Ringpeece, another witness.

Nobody was hurt in the crash which HAV, the developer, insisted was definitely not funny.

“I nearly pissed myself! Brilliant!” laughed Bertha McBackend, who lives nearby, “My dog let out a thunderous fart just as the stupid contraction hit the ground! I swear if I can find video of it on youTube, I’ll loop the bugger for hours!”
The flying arse was originally developed by the US military but due to budget cuts the behind was left behind. HAV decided to continue development of the airborne derrière, claiming that it could be used for commercial purposes including passenger travel.

“We don’t want the Airlander to be the butt of your jokes, ” said a spokesman, “so please make sure your coverage is serious and not a series of bum jokes. We’re investigating the incident and hope to get to the bottom of it soon.”

HAV hope to sell around 10 of the vehicles per year in future. If they haven’t rectum.
