Once when I was in the printing side of the newspaper industry, I set a late caption for a picture of an RNZAF aircraft (when the air force still had aircraft) assisting a yacht in trouble in the Taranaki Bight (nice bit of cross-threading there, CK!). Right in the middle of Page 1. The caption I set read:

"An RNZAF Orion drops farts to the crew of the foundering yacht."

Guess which word I transposed the letters in?

This occasioned a rather fraught trip to the MDs office to explain myself ...
