Mr Crowther is 99 according to the headline,and it was his brother that was shot down.If he was flying from Aberdeen to LBA and back he would need a passport,but it would seem that nobody has the balls to make a decision,and an exception to the `rules`.It should not be too difficult to provide an `escort`,even a hi-vis jacket with lights,in case he gets too frisky..
A sad reflection on those in `Authority` who can`t show some common sense,and a bit of curtesy and respect for those who gave them `freedom`....
