Help with Shuttleworth pilot I/D?

In September 1992 I was lucky enough to win the raffle for a flight in the Collection’s Tiger Moth, (after YEARS of trying..never give up!). Can anyone tell me the name of the pilot, pictured in the last snap ?
I recall he was a Scot, and I think he was a test pilot at Bedford. Wonderful flight round Cardington and back, on a rather gloomy evening, thank you Old Warden for a unique experience.
