Sinopse
THE WORLD'S GREATEST TEST PILOT TELLS HIS STORY
'When you read through his life story, it makes James Bond seem like a bit of a slacker'
Kirsty Young, Desert Island Discs
'The greatest test pilot who ever lived. A true inspiration'
Tim Peake, astronaut and former regular British Army Air Corps officer
'The stories beggar belief'
Guardian
'Fascinating reading . . . His amazing life story is quite literally "stranger than fiction"'
Today's Pilot
In 1939, Eric Brown was on a University of Edinburgh exchange course in Germany, and the first he knew of the war was when the Gestapo came to arrest him. They released him, not realising he was a pilot in the RAF volunteer reserve: and the rest is history. Eric Brown joined the Fleet Air Arm and went on to be the greatest test pilot in history, flying more different aircraft types than anyone else.
During his lifetime he made a record-breaking 2,407 aircraft carrier landings and survived eleven plane crashes. One of Britain's few German-speaking airmen, he went to Germany in 1945 to test the Nazi jets, interviewing (among others) Hermann Goering and Hanna Reitsch. He flew the suicidally dangerous Me 163 rocket plane, and tested the first British jets.
Wings on My Sleeve is 'Winkle' Brown's incredible story.
