@Lordyaswas,
I was gonna say that Fokker was actually a Dutch company. But then realised the Squadron Leader may have been riffing on Focke-Wulf.
Anyway - reminded me of this terrible joke my dad told me (the bay was Botany Bay in his telling - and it's sadly close to extinction as Fokker went bankrupt in 1997)
Two fishermen were out in the bay one day, they'd been out for hours when they realised that the tide had taken them right out to sea, a big storm was whipping up so they decided to head back in.
After several attempts to get the engine going they realised that they were in trouble, so they got on the radio.
"Maydey, Maydey dis issa liddle idali, we needa you helpa, pleese come".
The message was heard by a passing Fokker Friendship who replied to the call.
"Little Italy, Little Italy, this is Fokker Friendship F-27, give us your location please".
No reply two minutes later the call came again.
"Maydey, Maydey dis issa liddle idali, we needa you help, pleesa come".
So the pilot again radioed for the location.
"Little Italy, Little Italy, this is Fokker Friendship F-27, give us your location and we will send help".
Still no reply, so the pilot tries again.
"Little Italy, Little Italy, this is Fokker Friendship..."
Just then the radio spoke.
"We don't want you fokker friendship, we want your fokker help!
