Hi,

Thank you for your praise - I wish that it was deserved. At Montaigne Noire this technique was taught and practiced without MY understanding, I think - but that was 62 years ago. I was to make my longest duration flight without FOUR engines whilst there. (I had seen the eight engined 100 Passenger "Trans Atlantic" Bristol Brabazon at Farnborough in 1949. Things have changed !)
