I particularly like the part where they had to "manually re-ignite the engines before the aircraft hit the tarmac".
Yes, I was amused by that... the media make no effort to get anything right... tarmac is a road material, runway, taxiway or apron are the correct terms. It was also said in TND of the Tiger turnback the other day that the aircraft was “forced” to turn back... by what??? Strong wind, a large hand??? No, neither, rather the PIC ‘elected’ to return.
