Chris Draper came and stayed with us when I was a teenager. Fascinating gentleman " Quite safe, I could have taken a formation of three Austers under those bridges. I flew over the ones that were a bit doubtful."
Although it wasn't mentioned, Haraka Senior had a slightly different claim, having survived being in a Sea Otter that actually flew into a bridge ( coming out of RAF Mountbatten , Plymouth) when I was a toddler at St. Eval.
