The message
from Martin contains these words:

I stayed with a group of colleagues in a hotel in Antwerp once. We had
rooms on
the top floor. An American veteran WWII pilot in the group said the
noise the
mosquitoes made climbing to his altitude reminded him of Japanese aircraft
positioning themselves for dive bombing. There was no sign of carrot fly.
