RAF aircrew with the FAA

There was, of course, one famous RAF member of 809 (and for all I know he lurks here), who, making his first deck landing, managed to bolt/wave off 5 times in a row, in a very public manner, for the "Sailor" series. Would like to have witnessed that de-briefing (the real one, after the camera crew left the briefing room). To be fair to him, it does seem to have taught him quite a lot! He never did it again.
