A prank by an RAF Tornado crew spotted flying with a sign saying "I'm with stupid" has been laughed off by the Ministry of Defence.

The crew, from RAF Lossiemouth, was photographed during a high-speed exercise through hills in Snowdonia.

Plane-spotters captured the navigator holding up a piece of paper with the joke pointing to the pilot.

An RAF spokesman said it was a "light-hearted moment" and insisted the crew had not endangered the aircraft.

Air crews often banter with spotters around this location.

In fact, aircrews often ask the spotters if they have pictures of their flights.
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.
