Bumpff

An origin suggestion: Bumpff - the term applied to anything involving papaerwork. It is an acronym for Brakes, Undercarriage, Mixture, Pitch, Fuel, Flaps, which was the landing checklist for piston-engined propellor driven aircraft: the term was then applied, initially by RAF types. When it subsequently came into general use it often lost its last 'f'.
