At Duxford yesterday, I heard that a well known pilot from U.K. had a very nasty crash in a Tiger Moth in Canada last week? and was seriously hurt, Has anyone any news on his condition etc., I know who he is, but wasn't sure whether or not to name him on site. Cheers.

Thankyou, Lightning. He lives in the next village to me, and we are on nodding aquaintance. I hope he recovers quickly, he wrote a lovely article in 'Pilot' recently on flying the Hawker Nimrod. I spoke to Canadian Heritage people when I was at Oshkosh last month, and he is very highly thought of there. Cheers.
