Just closed down the Lynx on the lawn of Government House in the Falklands. British High Commissioner gets out in his best white uniform complete with Lord Nelson type hat (covered in white feathers) and carrying his sword/dagger thingy (Full Regailia). RM Band struck up "God save the Queen" He saluted as I dissipated the hydraulics (you had too then) a massive squirt of hydraulic fluid shot out of the dump pipe and covered his back and hat, it was dripping down all the feathers and covered his back. To make matters worse I needed to vent an engine (also common then) and we then lost him in the smoke!!!

Looked like something out of a carry on film.
