I was sad to learn of the death of "Spud " Borer recently at the age of 88 after a short illness. Spud worked for many years as Barnes Wallis's assistant and in later years was a daily visitor to Brooklands where he of course worked since 1936. I met him on a couple of times and once he was kind enough to show me all the film footage of the Highball tests in Scotland during WW2.

Condolances to the Borer family and to his extended "family" at Brooklands.
