At last year&#8217;s Annual Dinner, Captain Brown gave a spell-binding  talk which nobody present will ever forget. Now in his nineties, he looks back  on a life that has been crammed with incident, achievement and adventure. He  attended the 1936 Berlin Olympics, he knew senior members of the Luftwaffe and  met the aviatrix\u00a0Hanna Reitsch; he interrogated the Camp Commandant of Bergen-Belsen; he\u00a0encountered Wernher von Braun and  Herman Goering.\u00a0Captain Brown holds the world record for aircraft carrier  landings, he is the Fleet Air Arm&#8217;s most decorated pilot and he has flown more  types of aircraft than anyone else in history.<\/span><\/span><\/div><div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><br \/><\/div><h1><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The price of the excellent three-course  dinner is \u00a348 and demand for tickets is bound to be high.
