The captain said hello and we had a little chat. I said, "where did you learn to fly, OAT at Oxford ?" No no he protested, "I'm ex RAF" while looking down his nose at me. I pressed further and asked what he flew in the RAF, fighter, transport ? None of these, University Air Squadron !!!!!!! God give me strength
And he was in command of a commercial airliner? What is the world coming to?
