[edit] Arnold Pickles?

User:80.168.196.53 inserted the bold section:

One of the original batch of aircraft (J1936, Old Carthusian) went on to record two significant 'firsts'. On 13 December 1918 the bomber, flown by Major A.C.S. Maclaren and Captain Robert Halley, accompanied by Brig-General N.D.K. McEwan and Arnold Pickles as engineer, made the first ever 'through-flight' from England to India. Taking off from Britain the aircraft flew via Rome, Malta, Cairo, and Baghdad, finally reaching Karachi on 30 December.

Is this a real person? It looked like vandalism to me, so I removed it. It returned no Google hits, but there is also a lack of info on this stuff on the internet. I sent a note to User:80.168.196.53 asking for source info.
