Fast forward to 2017. Captain Sherm and the Shermettes all speak fluent German. Still......thanks young Sunfish
Que? Beaverbrook is just the sort of "crash through or crash" leader who could fix the CASA problem, making himself unpopular in the process. He would be the exact reverse of the "safe pair of hands" we now have in my opinion.
