... that Sir William Hillary was sent to Dover in case of aircraft crashes but did not save anyone from an aircraft in 10 years service with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution?

Source: Wake-Walker (2007) The Lifeboats Story: 'Although the Sir William Hillary saw ten year's service at Dover, ironically, she was never called to a ditched aircraft'.

Article is new enough (created 30 March), Earwig gives a "violation unlikely" result of 15.3%, QPQ is done. Hook is interesting and is cited in the article. My only concern is that there are three unsourced paragraphs; the first paragraphs of the "History", "Specification" and "Silver medal service" sections should be referenced for this hook to be eligible in the main page per WP:DYKCOMPLETE.

These paragraphs share sources with the following paragraphs. I have repeated the citations to clarify this. Geof Sheppard (talk) 16:38, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
