Really hilarious. I saw the wooden A400 at the Farnborough airshow in 1994. (Plywood most likely, not balsa.)

John Simpson, as referrenced, is indeed the BBC correspondant who "liberated Kabul."

[jeremyhillaryboobphd]

which john simpson are they talking about? theres too many on wikipedia and theyre all war related haha

[drav1dan]

Is "John Simpson" a generic name for the British soldier, like "Tommy" was during WW2?

[jeremyhillaryboobphd]

i was thinking that - but i doubt it, i think they mean the ANZAC John Simpson aka simpson and his donkey.

[FFFUUUCCCKKKEEEDDD]

@jeremyhillaryboobphd : as TEP356 said they are refering to John Simpson the war correspondant that the americans nearly killed (successfully killing many others)  when they bombed him with "freindly fire"

[moodyvince]

just like "john smith", just a random English name :)

[TEP356]

My money would be on the BBC journalist of that name.

Jeremy: The John Simpson that they talk about is a British war correspondent.. he traveled in Afghanistan under a burka and was apparently the first western reporter to get to Kabul... but when he got there he came up with some preposterous statement like 'we have liberated Kabul'... or something like that.. And that's what they are referring to...
