Ken Wallis article from the EAA

I just received this, a brief piece on the exploits of Ken Wallis from the Experimental Aircraft Association. It’s good to see he is remembered and appreciated on this side of the Atlantic.

To me, and I suspect many others, in appearance and deeds, he was the embodiment of the stereotypical upper class Englishman…war hero, inventor with enough eccentricity to make him endearing.
