I remember an old friend (sadly no longer with us) telling me a story about being at a Norwegian base in the middle of a NATO exercise (with a Canberra) when a French Air Force Mirage IV did an emergency landing, very short of fuel having become unsure of his position.

In the bar later, the captain was given the title "To Lose Le Track".
