My old mum (sadly no longer with us) often told me of the time she flew under the Forth Bridge in a Swordfish, probably in about 1943. She was a WREN Bomb Range Marker in the Fleet Air Arm for most of WWII and flew as an observer in various types.

Probably not too difficult in such an aircraft but apparently resulted in a Court Marshal for the pilot!
