Congratulations, it looks like a cracker. Love the title and the subject matter and it’s an attractive looking book. You must be very proud of his achievements.

Hope you enjoy it. So exciting for us. It was his dream to have his book published.

I shall buy a copy for sure. I have an interest in their work testing enemy aircraft so this should be a good read.

Welcome to the Forum!

I know a bit about the Air Fighting Development Unit at Duxford in 1942 – was your grandfather there at that time?
