I hope it’s OK joining in. I've just subscribed.
I came across this thread searching for any references to my dad. He was Jan Masat, the Czech pilot and later ATC, mentioned back in 12194, 12199, 12200 and 12205.
I saw the photograph of the last Czech RAF pilot still alive. Thought I’d let you know that in 2014 a statue was erected in Prague of a winged lion to commemorate the Czechs who served in the RAF in WW2. In 2017 the names of all the air crew who fought for their country in the RAF were added; my Dad’s name is on the statue.
If he was alive today he would have been 101. He died quite young, before the velvet revolution in 1989 and was never able to take us to visit the country. I think he would have been amazed, and I hope extremely proud, to have seen the statue.
