I agree Tom,

There are a number of exceptional pilots around, but Neil was exceptional even amongst them.

I saw him fly but three or four times, twice in a Spitfire, once in a Pitts and once in, memorably, a Jungmann. Sadly I didn't see whether he did the Cantacuzino flick on landing, but it was a great display nonetheless.

I wish he was still around - even though he'd now be rising seventy, I reckon he'd be having a ball with all the exotica now available. Question: which collection do you think he'd be flying with?

Cheers,

Julian
