Three pointers

Remeber our Trident union rep telling a story about a flight on the Comet when he was extra crew. Went up front when the gear went down to find them doing a heads down approach - rechecked the weather which showed 8/8ths at 10,000 ft.
Advised the crew of the mistake just before they performed a go around.
Skipper a well known speed merchant! RIP
