Thankyou all! Just a note to pilots that might not know this achievement- this is unique to AFV and serves to recognise a very special pilot at AFV, who not so long ago passed away due to cancer, so we set up this achievement in his honour, to pay our respects to him- he completed 691 flights. He remains a very special person in the hearts of us at AFV.
