Well, for me it was:
The Boy's Book of the RAF
Various 'Battler Britton' comics
Lots of Ian Allan aeroplane books
The odd Air Clues and Recce journals donated by a Hunter pilot chum of my father
RAF Flying Review
A few bits and pieces from the papers
But in those days you just had to want to fly jets and serve the realm. You didn't have to be some Air Power pseud or know WTF the difference was between NATO and the UN......
