If you're wondering what it says on the side of the aircraft,

"y" or "yr" is "the" ( and sometimes also "per" ) "a" is "and" "o"
is "of" "Tywyn" is "Port"

so the Phrase translates literally to School the Port

A funny old language is Welsh. In comparison to English, the word
order usually puts the cart before the horse. And depending upon
the preceding word, the first letter of the following word can
change, but from an early age I could say
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch - the
only word I know with fours Ls in a row.

I think I remember my dad trying to teach me that word. I managed
to get all the way to the first L.
