[[John Granby]] also had a good opinion of Forthing. Of the aviators sent to New South Wales, he believed Forthing alone was competent, and suggested him for Temeraire's crew, and when Laurence explained that Temeraire did not like him, Granby thought it was all the better for Forthing to make it up to Temeraire. While Temeraire tended to think Forthing spent ''too'' much time with the eggs, once one was stolen he pleased Temeraire by rigging a more secure harness, which attached to Temeraire himself, for the second egg. | [[John Granby]] also had a good opinion of Forthing.
