Thanks Discorde - quite interesting to trawl through.
A question for Bergerie1 on BOAC VC10 people if I may - slightly off topic but in the same area. Captain A S M Rendall was the VC10 Flight Manager and seems to have been known almost universally as "Flaps Rendall". [With a given name of Athelstan, I guess a nickname was inevitable!] Given the flightdeck "etiquette" of the day, would he have been called "Flaps" on the flightdeck?
