i just finished a friends copy on “Behind the Cockpit Door,” by Arthur Whitlock. What a great read! I wanted to buy my own copy but WOW… not cheap on the used market.
I'll agree with that! I got my copy in a second-hand bookshop for less than the price of a beer. The author was a pretty good artist too, his drawings really added colour to the words.
I'd recommend Murray Peden's
A Thousand Shall Fall, too. A well-written account of a Canadian bomber pilot's journey from cadet to operations. Nearly 500 pages to keep you occupied for a while.
