I have no opinion about the Devon strut.

Winkle Brown on the other hand, I've heard speak several times, and a couple of times had the privilege of sitting next to at formal dinners where he was even more generous with his experience and views.

The man is an amazing living example of all that has ever been best in British aviation. Go to this talk, even if you have to postpone your wedding to go, trust me, he's worth it.
