Jun. 06, 1943 - The Fastest man in the world. Holder of the world airspeed record, Peter Twiss is a former fleet Air Arm Pilot, and holder of the D.S.C and Bar. Although he is a powerful man physically, he said that the controls at speeds above 1, 000 m h. on the Delta Jet were finger tip easy to operate. He is 34 years of age, an interesting fact in days when it is heard that Jet Pilots must be youngsters
