"Estimating the Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow"

Those who know me know that I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Monty Python...

One of their classic scenes is, of course, the question of the origin of King Arthur's coconuts (as I understand it, the true origin was that they didn't have the budget for horses!)

Well, somebody's apparently actually worked out the physics of Estimating the Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow! Enjoy!!
