The Pilot in WDMTGTS is effectively the same character, and Knight's remarks about taking pilots are Jim Brading's.
But he also incorporates the pilot AR met in Flushing on his own North Sea trip.
Authors get their material everywhere. And of course Knight's other Falcon book provided material for PD.
