He related a strange tale to me about how he was flying a Spitfire in WW2, overshot Biggin Hill and crash landed out of fuel in that location.
Errr... How bad a navigator do you have to be to overshoot Biggin and not realize you screwed up until you get to Scotland? That sounds a bit suspect to me...
