Phil the greek

Famous royal flight on the gripper...chief pilot and head of training, the pair of them famous for tent peg landings which led to the main spars being repaired on the T3 fleet. Probably the blokes responsible for the myth of positive touchdowns needed on wet runways which continues to this day.
After landing in Zagreb...Phil opens the door "If you are looking for your Trident it's up my ar$e"..
No doubt discussed at the next guild knees up...two masters and the president.
ps..P3 told the story for years of how he pulled a CB to allow them to fly at Mdesign to keep the noise down.
