Australian flies don't land on ceilings, they just spend their entire day   
buzzing around your head !

Speaking of flies (if that is OK with some on an aerobatic list.....) who   
knows why they only appear in the cockpit as you are trying to land ?

Hi,

I saw some film once.  They fly gently up towards the ceiling on a   
climbing
line, put out their front legs, grab on and then kinda swing their butts   
up.
 Sp they end up facing back the way they came.

At least, thats what British flies do!
