An Article Suggestion for "Flypast"

Has it occurred to anyone that not much is known about Mr. Fry’s private life for the simple reason that he likes to keep his private life exactly that?

He’s not that secretive Kev, he participated in the “Who Do You Think You Are – Stephen Fry” geneology programme. Most people know by now that he suffers from bi-polar, and he’s a – what should we say these days? – Confirmed batchelor?

He also has a “facebook” account. In fact, I think it would be fair to say that Stephen is very open about his private life, which is unusual these days. Much more than many of us, anyway.

Oh, and he drives a black London Taxi Cab.

Why not have a go at writing it yourself? Try and contact mr Fry, start talking, take a few pics, and start writing. It’s not that difficult, and if Flypast won’t be interested, i’m sure some other mags will.

So, if I was to do this, what would you, or anyone else who cares to chip in, want to know?

I doubt I’d be able to travel, and I don’t know how I’d be able to contact him. But I could put out some feelers, I suppose.

May I suggest that Flypast do an article on Stephen Fry?

I COULD tell you but I’d have to kill you…

I thought loop might be a better place for it, not traditionally FPs bag,

I wouldnt email Ken – he gets inundated…will have a quiet word with my ‘handler’ to see if any interest…

www.Loop.aero has just done a piece of James May and his Luscombe.

Rob, write to either Ken at FlyPast or Dave at Today’s Pilot (both Key). I don’t know if either browse the forums so your idea may go unnoticed.

I have discovered that Stephen Fry has been associated with G-BEWN, a De Havilland DH 82a Tiger Moth.

It is a bit intangible though, he simply appears with it in a Best of Fry & Laurie episode, and it could easily have been hired by the production company.

I haven’t seen the clip, and it is a bit presumptious to assume he owns it without hearing what he has to say.

[During a discussion on the future of Aviation, Stephen remarks that the flight crew of the future will consist of one pilot and a dog]
Stephen Fry: The job of the pilot will be to feed the dog. The job of the dog is to bite the pilot if he tries to touch anything.

Saw a programme a few months ago about Martin Shaw and his rather nice Stearman rebuild project.

I wrote to our sponsor last week about an article suggestion, no reply.:(

I didn’t know he was a pilot!
