Known as 'Mac'; WWI pilot and founder of Union Airways, which was sold to the South African Government in 1934.

"One of South Africa's most famous aviation figures"

"A little incident which shows the sort of man Major Miller is happened at Gravesend a short time ago. Mac had just landed after flying the Mew Gull. He then told Capt. Percival that he did not like to tell him before, as he thought it might worry him, but except for a short flight in a Vega Gull he had not flown for two and a half years! "I knew it would be quite all right " was what he told Percival."
