On [[5 August]], the ''Sky Jack'' took off from [[Iwo Jima]] and headed northwards towards Japan on a top secret mission to drop Big Momma on [[Kyoto]]. Despite the secrecy, the ''Sky Jack'' was spotted by [[Japanese Zero]]s and attacked. All but three members of the crew were killed and the [[aircraft]] began rapidly losing [[fuel]] at a rate which meant it was not possible to reach Kyoto. The crew's only hope of survival was to reach the [[Ogasawara Islands]] but doing so risked the Japanese discovering the existence of the atomic bomb and potentially capturing it for their own use. [[Filmore (Sky Jacks)|Captain Filmore]] ordered the pay load to be dropped into the [[ocean]] and hoped that the other two bombs would be more successful. Before the crew could dispense with the bomb, the ''Sky Jack'' suddenly fell into a [[black hole]], where the crew spent three years before the [[Eleventh Doctor]] returned them home. Kyoto was spared and the details of Big Momma and the bomb run would remain a secret.
