Miles K-M

Yes indeed I remember him well. A thoroughly good egg. He was a consultant surgeon who free-lanced at week-ends with Autair as F/O on the Ambassador. Poor Miles was so shattered after one over-night duty (in those days 16 hours was not unusual) that on his way home he parked up his Mini on the hard shoulder of the M1 and took 40 winks. He was rudely awakened by a traffic cop and prosecuted. I suppose on reflection Autair should have coughed up for him - but such benevolent acts were unheard of then as indeed they are now. More I cannot tell you, but a very charming chap was Miles. He may have gone on to fly other types with Autair.
