I seem to remember that in the 30s the RAF used biplanes (Hawker Harts?) to control Persia by machine gunning and bombs, If a pilot crashed the advice was shoot your self as the locals were hostile to be bombed. Odd that

Still oop north or back on Dartmoor? Had a wet and cold enjoyable walk along the canal this morning. The Shropshire and Montgomery canal is being rebuilt Our nearest section had a problem due to the rare aquatic plants - talk of sails only on that bit - but the Trust is digging all the plans up and putting them in a safe place to be replanted and hopefully spread after dredging. sadly the aqueduct over the Vyrnwy is not up to Chirk or Pontcysyllte.
