corrupt minds ?

I have seen this gesture, and prefer to think he is indicating silent running.
I believe he useing his index finger not the middle diget. The other man on the planes ,would nail him,or @ least & F-you-too !:rotfl:Things,must be slow.

I've seen the driver (planesmen?) in SH3 put his index finger up to his lips during silent running. Maybe this is what he saw and it's also in Sh4?

This is what it is.

In SH4, during Silent Running, the helmsman will look at you and put his finger to his lip in a "Sssshhhhhh!" gesture.

That's what he saw.

On the other hand....Maybe the planes man had been hitting the depth charge medicine too frequently and was indeed making the gesture.....food for thought.
