Question Ryanair Repair Cockpit Window With Tape?

Hey all,

Just read on a couple of websites that a Ryanair flight was aborted because they tried to repair a cockpit window seal with some sticky tape.

Was wondering what the take on this is here. Are the press simply making this sound worse than it is (i.e there is some material that can be used to repair the windows that looks like tape), or have Ryanair really hit the bottom of the barrell this time and it really is just a bit of gaffer tape?
