Only time I saw him out and about in the Cotswolds, he was driving a bog standard Citroen. And yes, he is tiny

A four car pile up?! There's nothing like over exaggerating a head line is there. This sounds like your run of the mill bumper to bumper accident to me. Nothing like a pile up. Anyway, that's one hell of a car to crash. My first reaction was "Ooooooh!" and that was when I saw what car it was. I'm sure he (or his insurance) can afford the repairs though. |

Actually, the thing about it that surprises me is they're letting someone who recently had a serious a brain injury as he's had take flying lessons. I mean, what happens if he had a blackout or something in the air? Is he going to have to fly with a copilot, even after he qualifies? I wonder what May thinks about it after all the moaning he did about that Cessna in the plane vs Veyron race? Jon |

If he's medically fit I don't see why he can't fly solo? If you're going to start going down the road of "what if" then that can only end badly. |

He probably has as much chance of a sudden brain hemorrhage as anyone else. However, as MRI scans aren't mandatory for getting a pilot's license, his brain may be a risk, but it's a known risk - it has probably been scanned quite extensively during his time in hospital. He's also spent a lot of time cycling and getting fit, so he's probably less likely to have a heart attack at 5000 feet too. |

He was the 4th car of a 4 car accident. Slow news day perhaps? |
