It was a flying oil leak also. I helped with them as well as with the Buckineers that they sent over to us. The Buckineers had rolls royce engines also and when you opened the engine bay doors the oil poured out . Standard procedure was to add about a gallon or so every hop !!! We sent A-6's and phantoms to the Ark Royal. The Buckineers were an attack plane like the intruder but without the fancy avionics. I'll see if I have a picture of one of those somewhere
