Thanks Nutloose for drawing attention to this fine young man. I hope this thread gets donations added to his £25K for the RAF Benevolent Fund..
Thread title made 6,500+ (at present) read the thread and I thought it was amusing clickbait. (However I know many don't share my sense of humour)- I'm still awaiting Buster's riposte though.

We are all aware of how headlines often distort facts to draw you in. My 'favourite' recent one being this from the Portsmouth News:
Royal Navy's £3.2bn aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales hit by flood
SAILORS onboard Britain’s newest £3.2bn aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales have been battling a significant flood on the warship.
Which translates as "‘Following a minor issue with an internal system on HMS Prince of Wales the ship’s company were required to remove a small volume of water from (one compartment of) the ship."
