Pilots Facing Punishment Over Giant Penis Flight Patterns

A routine turning drill turned into an exercise in sky-scrawled smut.

Finnish air force cadet pilots have landed themselves in trouble after a routine turning drill turned into an exercise in sky-scrawled smut. Graphic loops in the shape of large penises were spotted on Flightradar after two Grob G 115 propeller planes took off from the Finnish city of Jyväskylä on April 13 and made a series of unusual maneuvers, The Telegraph reported. The students behind the stunt are trainees on Finland’s pilot reserve officer course, based at the Tikkakoski academy. A Finnish air force spokesman said the cadets will face “disciplinary” measures, adding: “The air force requires soldiers to follow good manners and rules of conduct, and if these are deviated from, it will be responded to in an appropriate manner.” Officials stressed that no one was endangered and that the aircraft stayed on its assigned route throughout. It’s far from the first sexual airborne doodling scandal. RAF pilots carved a 40-mile phallus across the skies of Lincolnshire and north Wales in October 2021, while Russian carrier Pobeda managed a similar feat in November 2020—apparently in a tribute to footballer Artem Dzyuba.
