Actually that should read as a "country full of British convicts".

A follow up question, seeing as the black box always seems to survive a plane crash, why can't they make the whole plane out of the same material?

I needed to retype it five times

Because you'll have lots of friends when you learn German.

Good thought, but encasing each passenger in an Orange coloured Tin box would just about about guarantee their survival but they do seem to take ages to find them after a prang so maybe not a great idea after all, although it would make for a quieter flight without all those chattering PAX enjoying themselves which they are not supposed to be doing.

Is that why ladies with bleached blonde hair are called aviation blondes?

Maybe they are "Aviator's Blondes" Well, yer never could tell.
