I think it was Neil Gregory who I flew with, back when he was flying for George C? In G-BWUB, that I know for sure.

If it is the same Neil, and if you are in touch with him again, please thank him for introducing me to his version of the Thermette (Thermette - Why is Copper Important?) We now have our own, and use it on all our camping trips

I still tell people about how we would brief, fly, beach the plane on the lochshore, he would fill the little thermette up with loch water, make a cup of tea, produce some biscuits/shortbread, debrief, rebrief and off we went again. It was the most fun type rating I have ever done
