Don up in Inverness is the oldest at 89 of the 2 old buffty's that require special insurance for the over 80's at the flying club.

Don used to fly a Halifax bomber into Italy in WW2 and 7 years ago decided to fly as a hobby again on a NPPL. He is the most precise pilot I have ever flown with. Forget your +- 100 ft tolerences the needle never moves.

Previlage to fly with him ( I can't say instruct him cause I learned more off him than he did off me)
