Also includes "you can't park there, sir" for the police equivalent.

Rules:

No deaths or serious injuries because who would be around to get told they couldn't park there?

A subsequent [Board of Inquiry]found that Watson had completed only 75% of his training before he had been sent to sea. The board blamed Watson's inexperience, and criticised his commanders for the radio problems with his plane. Watson was reprimanded for displaying substandard airmanship and reassigned to a desk job.He eventually returned to flight duties and accrued nearly 3,000 hours of flying time before resigning his commission in 1996.

Kinda cool, honestly. Aside from the whole “got lost” bit. Less than a minute’s fuel left.
