    That was not the only place where "Strange Mac" tried to jab the 
British......
    Can you find anything about Freddie Raynham?  He became a close
 friend here in the U.S. not long before he died. He had one of the
 first (20 or less) pilot licenses in Great Britain.  Hhe was a
 test pilot for DeHaviland, and pioneer in powered and gliders.
 They declared him too old to fly in WW II and too important to
 fly in WW I. He was a Group Captain in WW II for accident
 investigation.  I have an article on his attempts to fly the Atlantic
 before Alcock and Brown... Anything else would be appreciated.
 I do have one old B & W photo of him that I took about 1943.
 He looked more the professor than a famous pilot pioneer.
 Thanks,
 Jim
