Robert Henry McIntosh

Robert Henry McIntosh (23 September 1894–1983), also known as All-Weather Mac following his ability to land safely in a six passenger Handley Page 0/400 in dense fog at Croydon Airport in October 1921, was a British wing commander and one of Imperial Airways' 16 original pilots.

[1][2] In 1927, he made unsuccessful attempts to fly at first across the Atlantic with James Fitzmaurice and then to fly to India and back with Bert Hinkler, both on the aircraft Princess Xenia, a Dutch Fokker F.VIIa.

[3][4][5] A road, McIntosh Close, in Roundshaw, London Borough of Sutton, is named after him.
