G´day Gofer,

The reason I chose RV as username is because of book written by RV´s pilot who flew him around the world in his private 707, named Silver Phyllis. The book is called The Flying Capetbagger and is great fun to read. It revolves around his wheelings and dealings, but also about a man flying around the world in his private 707 full of booze and beautifull women. A great deal of his scams were plotted here in Switzerland (IOS in Geneva) , but also involve Costa Rica´s ex-president Marti Figueres, the SEC and even have links to Richard ´tricky dicky´ Nixon.

It also illustrates the Banana Republic that Switzerland is.....

Grüetzi !

RV
