That is a good one Wilton!
In your case, it was "Put Otto in it"
In my case, it was "Put it on Otto"
Our B-52 wing commander at Kincheloe AFB, MI, for a while was Col.
Otto Kovar; we called 'im "Otto Pilot."

When I installed a vacuum operated cruise control in my 66 200D
back in the early 80s, I gave the cruise control the nickname
"Otto" As in "Otto is driving." It was Germanification of the
first part of Autopilot.
Reminds me of Wall-E... Otto[pilot]
