"Butter! Right on my bagel..."
 
Heard this on radio comms last night while flying a quick mission over the channel. Apperently some AI pilot in my group was having breakfast right in the middle of a dogfight! :-P

It's historically inaccurate. In reality the bagel is buttered as a given by the waiter, the pilot should've been requesting a certain topping, and the setup is wrong, especially the timing, British pilots speak at a strict words per minute rate, the radio call is much too slow, at approximately 5.4 brandies of alcohol, whereas any pilot would only drink 2 brandies maximum for a bagel.

1C really needs to adjust the speaking speed of these pilots to match historical figures.
