Another amusing anecdote about Chick ("just do your job old son") was a flight to Haneda with a new British F/O keen to please, asked Chick about the standard night stop entertainment of bending the elbow at the nearest beer hall.
No old son, I'm just going to give the old stick a bit of a work out. Oh said the F/O, do you mind if I join you? Are you interested in that kind of thing, asked Chick? Oh rather, nudge, nudge, wink, wink;was the answer. Little did he know that Chick was an avid disciple of Kendo which was practiced with wooden swords!
