True Mackie, yet Douglas Bader managed it and got himself an OBE or whatever for it. He simply refused NOT to fly, legs or no legs. (I used to work for him once - he was nothing like as nice as Kenneth More in that wonderful old film Reach for the Sky). But he really did fly a Spitfire in WW2 with wooden legs. But that's like our 4 wheeled pilots today ... today, Douglas Bader would NOT have been able to fly, and if Nigel Mansell was driving for Mackie Motorsport, he might not have attracted the attention that Jamie Green got in his Fortec car <ducks> :-) Sorry! You know what I mean!!!
