TOM BOOTH retired in May 2010 and spends most of his spare time flying.
Contacting aircraft in flight without an airband radio is hit and miss, as they are often too high for mobile signals to reach - actually the fastest, least intrusive method is to use email!
Tom's aircraft mobile number is shown opposite, together with his personal email address.
If you are interested in learning to fly - here's a precis wot I wrote as an exam crammer for the 6 CAA pilot exams.
