Something I want to find out is how do you fuck up so badly when transporting her Majesty’s finest naval air defence fighter.

Well, VTOL is not the easiest thing to controll irl, as one pilot said “this plane gives you x ways to embarass and kill yourself” (i forgot how it went)
nozzles are in somewhat vtol position

I think it was a training flight and the student pilot failed to get it to the breaking stop. Meaning he skidded straight off the edge of the runway

wasn’t their one that got lost so he landed on a cargo ship

Yea, that happend, aslo ther is one that fell into the water during presentation i think

I love the life raft. Make sure to always follow emergency procedures

you would be able to step on a wing and jump off it

This of course, was preceded by one of the other Sea Harrier pilots not engaging in any sort of Flaps.

Does not surprise me. Difference between flotsam and jetsam.
