Wonderful read Paul... ;)

I believe there is an article on him somewhere in the library at the old homestead.

Just a quick question Paul...

Is Frank wearing your motorcycle boots in picture one...??? ;D

There was a rather excellent article on him and his explorations in Aeroplane last year I think.
