In the link below are a couple of extended podcasts done by the naval air history website on the Falklands Air War.
The first episode features Commander Tim Gedge (CO 809 NAS) and Commander Larry Jeram-Croft (Lynx pilot, HMS Andromeda) and their views of the campaign. It includes the 'sinking' of HMS Invincible on May 30th.
The 2nd episode is an updated interview with the man whom this thread is all about, his views of the war and the future of UK naval aviation. For the first 22 minutes, he gives a balanced view of all sides and then he's off like a Cheltenham Gold Cup runner. At the end he does makes a very good point about the upper echelons of the RN (Tim Gedge also alludes to some high up decisions in his chat as well).
Following on from his interview and post analysis is an interview with Eric 'Winkle' Brown from the late 70's. Makes for very interesting listening about his views also on the upper workings of the RN, naval air power and inter service rivalry. Where Commander Ward chomps at the bit, 'Winkle' Brown comes across like a stately school master.
