Alan Brown

Many of you will know Alan Brown, the Kent based air-war researcher. Sadly, he passed away last night after a short illness. Al was one of the “originators” of the aviation archaeology movement and his knowledge of wartime air losses in Europe was stupendous. He was a real character and many historians, writers, museums etc etc have much to thank him for as he had built up a real wealth of knowledge and records. He will be sadly missed and I felt there would be many on this forum who know him, or know of him. My sincere condolences to his wife and family. Andy Saunders
