In a Royal Airforce incident, a TEA POT became a life saver at 8000 feet above ground. The crew of the plane used the teapot as a " JUGAAD" to plug a hole in the aging airborne Nimrod aircraft.
The crew was flying from Cornwall in southern England to its homebase in Kinloss Scotland, and the crew of the craft known as submarine hunters dropped a sonar buoy into the sea from 8000 feet. After releasing the buoy the latch to close the door wouldn't close, leaving a hole where the cold air from outside was rushing in . Thats when the crew if the flight used the TEAPOT to stop the airflow...
Interesting use of the TEAPOT there isn't it.....
