If the solo issue isn't an issue, why was it so important that you had to join this forum and tell us you were the one to first say it?

As Sam says, the awards committee believe the flights to have been solo and that was obviously a part of their deliberation. In addition there's the 'feat of navigation' which turned out to be nothing more than following half a dozen very accurate GPS devices while a far more experienced pilot sat in the other (fully equipped) cockpit. Is that your fault too?
