At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

Whoa, think I've seen that stunt one time before, it's sad FAA isn't in Russia, those aerobatic pilot's would be quickly grounded...............for safety. ;) ;D

Not quite the same but in 1953 Christopher Draper the Mad Major flew an Auster under 15 of the 18 London bridges as a protest against the treatment of war veterans. He was arrested & fined 10 guineas.

I was told that another character & well-known reprobate, Maurice Kirk (the Flying Vet), once flew under Tower Bridge with Oliver Reed as passenger.

Seen many times before and not something the CAA would approve of!

Not quite the same but in 1953 Christopher Draper the Mad Major flew an Auster under 15 of the 18 London bridges as a protest against the treatment of war veterans. He was arrested & fined 10 guineas.


Wish I could do that and only get fined 10 Guineas! ;D ;D ;D ;D
