Man, that's been around for YEARS. I got it in my e-mail again recently. I guess it is on another circulation stint.

Not true. 

Digital cameras are great for pranks.  I removed the entire radio stack from a King Air once, but not before I took a photo of it installed with the radar in test mode.  I printed the photo out actual size, plastered it on a piece of aluminum, and screwed it to the radio rack.  That got some looks.

Another fun one was hanging fuzzy dice from the compass and installing dingle balls around the windows.  A little fake red fur on the glare shield completed the look.

The best part of corporate aviation is raiding the snack drawers and fridge.  To fill the space just put a few cans of Alpo in there.   :icon_twisted:

We did the squak sheet thing too, but I don't remember any of them off hand.  Some of them got pretty heated.  However, I do remember the flight department catching wind of our bird extermination plan.  They fought back by installing bird houses around the airport.   :icon_rolleyes:

did this with a friends car stereo took the pic printed, mounted it to a piece of 1/4 inch wall paneling (his vision is not the greatest) placed in radios former spot, placed radio in passengers seat, and then while we were standing next to his vehicle, i made the comment, "dude lets hear the system man!" he opens door , was like damn i didnt know i had 2 of these COOL ! ! !" but then could for the life of him figure out why the radio did not work  :icon_twisted: :icon_twisted:
