It was in September 1966 that NB disrupted the large RN formation flypast into the Farnborough Air Show; it was a working weekday and he was overhead RAF Odiham at the time. Those who saw the incident said that there were Sea Vixens and Scimitars going in all directions, apparently.

He then landed in the Zlin at Odiham (I recall he had his dog strapped in the other seat) and was interviewed by the Ops Officer. I recall the exchange "Haven't you seen the NOTAM?" and his reply "What's a NOTAM?" He had "come to see the aeroplanes".

Nobody there that day shared the affection and respect expressed elsewhere in this thread.
