Thanks Winsor. I enjoyed that, although I don't normally have much
good to say about newspapers in the US (shades of a thousand-page Tampa
Tribune with pretty well news-free content). The photo of Steve Fosset
shaking hands with Richard Branson while still in his tiny cockpit is a
good one. The light is lovely, considering that it was allegedly taken
in the early afternoon, when he landed. But enough about photos: what
a feat! To fly a strange aircraft for 67 hours with the minimum of
sleep (20 minutes apparently) is pretty amazing! But then Mr Fosset
seems to be a pretty impressive sort of chap ...
