Living Legend - Ken Wallis

I went to a brilliant talk by the great Ken Wallis last night.

His brain is still very sharp - despite being 97.

He still flys his Autogyros often too - he has 16 of them.

His main claim to fame is doing all the flying of 'Little Nellie' his Autogyro in the James Bond movie You Only Live Twice.

But there is so much more to this man.

Designer, engineer, bomber pilot, model maker, test pilot and more.

It was a privilege to hear him speak.
