Hi Andy,
Its certainly not that fellow you mention.The Stone i am trying to trace sold the yacht in 1969 and i believe he was on canberras then.Bieng a catalina pilot during the war,this information has come from the gentleman i bought the yacht from as he purchased it from Stone in 1969,he himself worked for the Air Inspection Department back then.

Many thanks Alan.

I think that possibly could be him Kev,do you know anything else about his career at all.

Regards Alan.

The only other information i have is he flew Catalinas as well during the war,i am only requesting information as i have just purchased a yacht he owned and i am just curious really.But cannot find anything relating to him at all :confused:

Regards Alan
