SKYWAYS and RAF Kid

Good morning RAF Kid - I may be making a mess of this message lark - haven't done much of it! Thing is I think I have sent you the following. Just incase I haven't I'll send it again.
Some answers to your questions:
03APR59 03/1844 (all times G) GALDL dep Stansted Capt Paddy Gingles SKY 105/905
04/0049 arr Brindisi dep 04/0200: 04/0603 arr Ankara dep 04/0722 Capt Tony Leaning:04/1401 arrr Baghdad dep 04/1547: 04/2030 arr Karachi dep
05/1256: 05/1607 arr Delhi: 05/2132 arr Calcutta dep 05/2240 Capt Freddie Marvell: 06/0724 arr Singapore. There were certain terrain problems on the Ankara sector largely due to use of 100 oct fuel
at AM request and consequent de-rating of engines.
With regard to book I don't yet have a publisher I have had a couple of copies bound and could well have others produced in the same way but for the fact that I couldn't afford to sell tem at less than £45 per copy.
If you would like to know more, send me your email and I could transmit copies of the content pages. Hope the above is of interest. Paddy Gingles had quite a war and wound up with 617 - thoroughly good and amusing bloke apart from being a highly accomplished driver. Regards SKYBYWAYS
