HMS Raven II
[edit]- ... that an aircraft from HMS Raven II was forced to make an emergency landing on 21 April 1917 in the Maldives; the crew's adventures inspired Rudyard Kipling's story "A Flight of Fact"?

Article length, x5 expansion, hook citation and available refs all check out, I have no doubt that the offline sources do as well. The hook is a little on the long side though (I make it 205 characters with spaces) - could possibly remove 'seaplane carrier' without any loss of meaning.
