And Tom Campbell-Black was reputed to haunt the old Speke Aerodrome ever after.

On a nightstop at the Airport Marriott a few years ago a lady was complaining about a disturbed night. After she left I asked the receptionist if Captain Black had been misbehaving. The receptionist was shocked that I knew of him and I was informed that they never mentioned him, but that the lady's room had been in the old tower part of the building where CXaptain Black got up to a lot of his high-jinks.

My grandfather and T C-B were good friends. Back in the 60's I was at Speke with the old man when the subject of T C-B came up with ATC, some of them hated night shifts because of the ghost.

There was a good article about T C-B's ghost in Pilot about 20 years ago if anyone can find it.
