Your correct, i've seen the picture in one of the many books i've read and Joe L'Estrange is credited as pilot, i have a feeling that the book also has the serial number of the Vulcan in question but thats now escaped me..

Opening capitals would be nice too, but we generally let SM get away with that, so I suppose we must be consistent.

One Olympus 301 has twice the power of a complete F1 starting grid.
XM655 has four of them, all serviceable.

S.M. is certainly consistent, his keyboard doesn't have a capital I!
