What makes this person specially notable over the thousands of pilots who were shot down and survived in WWII? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.123.157.156 (talk) 17:52, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried to improve the article a little bit because I felt it was a little mess. If anyone can improve it better than I can, then by all means do it. What needs to be found somewhere is when he was born and where, even try and find an picture/image of him in his uniform. Adamdaley (talk) 01:10, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Whoever created this article and helped creat it thanks! Most of the famous pilot's who flew in the Battle Of Britain have there own page but 97% of Fighter Command was up of Pilots like him, each one of "The Few" deserves to have his story told I only hope one day that will be so. P.S. to the author of this article: can you tell us his post Battle of Britain Air Force Career? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.249.33.137 (talk) 19:21, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that anything relating to birth date or age is just mentioned as "(aged 93-4)" is a slight problem. If anybody can find his birth date and put it in the infobox, that'd be good. Niudla (talk) 09:50, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
