Sunderland Book

Hi Hairy - I Like Yr Memory On Details On The Sunderland - Amazing - You Are So Accurate - I Can Remember Lots As I Helped Build Them At Shorts Belfast . I Would Encourage You To Write That Book Or Supply Yr Notes To A Writer . Had An Old Buddy Here - Geoff Wikner - Who Did Just About Every Thing In Aviation - Inc. Piloting / Designing / Building Airplanes In The Early Days Here + In U.k. In Wwii - Was Also In The Ferrypilots Org. - He Did Not Trust Anyone With His Notes While He Was Alive - The Resultant Book Is One Of The Worst I Have Ever Read On Aviation - Full Of Inaccuracies . Pls Do It Now ? - Have Pilots Manual On Mk V - Can't See How To Inc. A Shot Of It Here On This Website Tho - Pity - Happy To Send A Copy To You If You Like - Thanx J.c.
