Ah, Bunny Bramson. Superb aviation writer. I remember being in the circuit at White Waltham when he pitched up in the Pilot Cessna. He expressed surprise that there were so few aircraft there for some prizegiving event. WW Radio replied with, "you should be going to Compton Abbas Alan". Immediate response was "thanks very much, Golf Alpha Bravo going around". It reassured me that even the great and good can drop the occasional clanger.

With apologies to the current contributors to Pilot et al, you have a tough act to follow with Mr. Bramson. His only failing was his obvious love of Jodels / Robins which always got rave reviews from him. He is sorely missed from my point of view.

He also did a good little book called Flying the VOR and ADF. Great help when I did my IMC back in the last century.

PS How did he get the nickname Bunny?
