First solo?

Does anybody remember a tale about a pilotless Harrier that was discovered flying over the Irish Sea? I seem to remember it was a true story, but I can't remember the exact circumstances.

As far as I can remember, it wasn't [excactly] pilotless. The pilot had suffered G-LOC [G Induced Lack of Consiousness] during [I think] a test flight from Dunsfold. The a/c carried on until it ran out of fuel and crashed.[ A bit like Payne Stewarts' Learjet
