TWO Navy warships crashed into each other because one was incorrectly rewired so it reversed instead of going forward, sources have claimed.
The minehunter HMS Chiddingfold smashed into HMS Bangor in Bahrain on Thursday after it failed to moor alongside it, leaving HMS Bangor with a large rip along its side.
Sources have told The Telegraph that HMS Chiddingfold accidentally reversed as a result of “faulty engine controls producing astern instead of ahead”. According to The Guardian, the vessel’s motor was “wired incorrectly”, which caused full ahead to give “full astern “
Aye, right.
Somehow I feel less 😳
😳😳 about reversing carefully out of my drive at the same time as Barbara next door whose drive is at right angles to mine and obscured by high shrubs , and have the slowest shunt ever as we crawled backwards into each other.
