 Rational parametrization of a cubic surface from two skew lines

For two skew lines $L,M$ on a smooth cubic surface, their joining line meets the surface at a third point generically. In coordinates with $L=\{x_2=x_3=0\}$ and $M=\{x_0=x_1=0\}$, write $F(\alpha A+\beta B)=\alpha \beta (\alpha U+\beta V)$. The third point is $[VA-UB]$ whenever $UV\ne 0$. Neither $U$ nor $V$ is identically zero, because that would make one of the two lines singular on the surface. The inverse records $[x_0:x_1]$ and $[x_2:x_3]$ of a general surface point. Thus the surface is birational to ${\mathbb{P}}^1\times {\mathbb{P}}^1$, hence to ${\mathbb{P}}^2$.
