I've had the pleasure of the drink with Brendan, and yes it was a laugh. At the time (about six months ago) he was doing his ATPL's as he wanted to fly the 747 classic and had been offered a position with Atlas I think. He has something like 180 types in his log book. If he was flying the Extra 300 it would be good, in this field he's a real pro. I don't know how he got on with the ATPL's but would like to know, he said he has a photographic memory. That would help.
