In those days very few had Flying Nick names.
”Laddie” Lucas, “Ginger” Lacey, “Cats-Eyes” Cunningham, “Dinghy” Young, “Aggy” Agazarian, “Bee” Beaumont, “Bomber” or “Butch” Harris, “Boom” Trenchard, “Boy” Wellham, “Bunny” Currant, “Sailor” Milan, “Cocky” Dundas, “Cobber” Kain, “Hogey” Carmichael, “Johnnie” Johnson, “Winkle” Brown, “Mick” Mannock, “Mutt” Summers, “Paddy” Finucane, “Sandy” Lane, “Stapme” Stapleton, “Stuffy” Dowding and “Taffy” Leigh-Mallory might all have a different opinion on that!



PS. Plus lots of “Spud” Murphy, “Tug” Wilson, “Hoppy” Hopkinson, etc...
