I've met Neville Duke a couple of times now (but certainly don't claim to know him) He is a real Gent and still flies on a regular basis.

SS

A couple of years ago my partner in the VP2 celebrated the 60th anniversary of his first solo by soloing the Veep for the first time. He wasn't in combat during WW2 but instead as a young man (non RAF) check flew new aircraft such as Spitfires as they came off the production line. His medical has now lapsed but he regularly flies with me and his flying is faultless!
