If it's brain transplant candidates you want the reporter who phoned me last week would be a hard one to beat. He called to ask what were the chances of obtaining a ride in K7. I thought it was a joke to begin with but he was deadly serious so I pointed out that it only has a single seat cockpit - fighter pilot style.
"Oh that's OK," he said. "I don't want to go very fast, 20mph will do..."

Could always sit him on the tail-or better-on a skiboard just behind the tail and nail the throttles for 10 seconds!-instant suntan!

Re: Mail on Sunday
I think we've just found the driver for the first run at Coniston.Surely the only point of rebuilding Bluebird is to fulfil Campbell's dream or keep it as a stationary exhibit. Piddling about Coniston at 100mph is neither here nor there
Piddling about at 100mph in a boat that displayed so tragically what happens when you find the limits; yeah, he/she/it can sit where a real hero sat and show us all that he/she/it is man/woman/thing enough master[*], even at 33% throttle, the awesome; truly, genuinely, awesome power of K7.
Type 2 idiot. Maybe nudging type 3.
