I am reminded of the story about Montgomery inspecting troops and stopping in front of a man who had a single ribbon, the Territorial Efficiency Medal. Monty said to him "You are the only man on this parade who has a medal I haven't got!" I have a total of two aircraft in my logbook as PIC - Cessna 152 and Cessna 172 - neither of which figure in Captain Brown's list!
Seriously - fantastically interesting man - he has probably forgotten more about aviation than I will ever know.
Respect!
