Late 1969 early 70 the Air Attache at the Embassy in Washington DC is invited to attend the opening night of the film "The Battle of Britain"
(AVM C-M was of course one of the Few) The flight across America(first class of course) to Los Angeles was uneventfull the arrival was a semi controlled crash.As C-M left the aircraft the Captain was stood at the door C-M turned to him and said "Young man that was the worst landing I have ever walked away from" To which the Captain quickly replied "Sorry Sir I was taught by the RAF" C-M being the perfect gentleman quickly walked on after shaking hands with the Captain.
