A very good morning to the Spanish Civil Patrol, who have made my #FailureFriday mission easier this week by smacking into [checks notes] the runway lighting system at Gibraltar's airport.
What they thought they were doing on short finals remains a mystery, but the diplomatic protests will no doubt be nothing compared to the undiplomatic ones of their boss.
@DreadShips Fortunately it seems nobody was hurt but looking at the damage they were lucky the boat didn't sink on the spot.
It takes a certain sort of pilot to steer directly into two big flashing red lights. I suspect they will be asked some searching questions about their eyesight.
Certainly a good candidate for #FailureFriday
@X31Andy @DreadShips Should've gone to Specsavers
@DreadShips @cjwatson @X31Andy Just for the benefit of non UK readers, Specsavers has a long running series of adverts where something dumb happens because of poor sight, followed by the strap line "should have gone to Specsavers". My favourite is the shepherd accidentally shearing his sheepdog.
This picture would have fitted in perfectly.
