DFCP, your CV for Sqn Ldr Reynolds, DSO and bar, DFC and bar, is awesome and demonstrates fully the flexibility that is fundamental to the profession of aviation. War, airlines, railways, GA, and traffic reporting! Interesting that he flew for KLM in the immediate post war era. Our own OP, Reg Levy, of course flew (heroically as it turned out!) for Sabena. There must have been many more ex-pats flying for the newly resurrected European flag carriers in those days, given that those pre-war pilots who had survived occupation were now years out of currency. I suspect that the bureaucracy involved in those days for such employment was much less than today.

The never sleeping PPRuNe clock (nowadays at least!) has indeed clocked up one more digit for PPRuNe's most senior member. Hopefully something more personal than the computer generated greetings that the rest of us enjoy was forthcoming, or does Danny have to clock up the ton for that? At any rate, Happy Birthday Danny, you are an inspiration to us all!
