I flew on Skytrain to New York in 1979 and the Captains name was Clive Hartley. I had known him from BM days but stupidly didn't ask if it was the same one.

A story of Clive ... I was in the jumpseat of a 1-11 from EMA to Glasgow about 1970, the Captain was Clive Hartley and the F/O Norman Brewitt. Just as we were touching down at Glasgow Norman leant over and said to Clive 'This landing is going to be like a silkworm's fart' so Clive was trying to land at the same time as trying not to wet himself with laughing and Norman's prediction came true.
