Lady Houston and her necklace - Spitfire Site News
... What does it have to do with a Spitfire? The connection is indirect, but very tangible. Lady Houston made a pivotal contribution to aviation history when in 1931, she donated £100,000 to Supermarine, preventing the company from withdrawing from the contest due to the lack of government funding. Without her, Britain would not have won the contest that year. There would be no Supermarine S.6B and World Speed Record, nor the Trophy permanently won for Britain. And without the S.6B, Supermarine would not be entrusted with designing and producing a new monoplane fighter for the RAF. Perhaps they would have stayed with the flying boats. There would be no Spitfire.

What a superb landing Ed Strongman made in the A400M today from Unusual Attitude by Kieran Daly
Ed StrongmanWhen I was hired for this Airbus A400M communications contract, I was told early on "it'll be good if you can liaise closely with the test pilot - Ed Strongman (seen left discussing the flight with his British customers) - very nice chap, you'll like him". What I quietly thought was "Oh Lord...". Here's the story.
So a few days into my time here in Seville the time came when Ed had a moment in his frantic schedule and we agreed to meet for an introductory chat. We'd not met before. So I wandered down to the flight-test building and we had a good conversation about how the first taxying trial had gone, what was coming up next, and how the programme in general was going. ...
