But - the Chalkie did beat the Henshaw statistic record and so well done to him.
I do not see anywhere that the new record holder claims to be a better pilot, finer aviator or greater gentleman for having done so. Thus perhaps it could be sumoarised that the record had been beaten but that perhaps the achievement had not been? Will that possibly keep the trench snipers happy?
Oh yes...Agaricus bisporus...less of the rubbish about the age thing please, lest you wish to encourage commentary about being the fungus of the month!
