Captain Eric "Winkle" Brown is the British Royal Navy's most decorated Fleet Air Arm pilot. During his 31-year career, he flew a world-record 487 aircraft types and performed a record-shattering 2,407 carrier landings. Interestingly, from the beginning to the end of his British flying carrier, his experience revolved around Germany and German aviation. This connection to Germany formed his flying foundation, continued through his combat and flight testing during World War II, blossomed during his time flying in post-war Germany, and culminated as he helped rebuild German aviation after the war. His incredible experiences, largely related to Germany and German aviation, produced notable milestones in the history of flight and experimental flight test and make Captain Brown one of the world's greatest test pilots.
