I forgot to bring to your notice a bit of "gen" concerning your story of the Danish Pilot who flew a Hornet Moth back to England.. At the time it rang a bell in my creaking mind... I had read, about a year ago, a book by Ken Follet and think that it was called "The flight of the Hornet Moth " and it was a very good yarn which must have been based on your character. As there is more than one Follet and I am not sure of the title perhaps someone else can enlighten us. It was very well written with very authentic details and very much "with it" with details of Occupied Denmark and the virtual rebuilding of the Hornet Moth which was rotting in a barn. I am sure that I got it from my local library so it is still in print and well worth reading. regle
