ricardian,
Many thanks for this find ! First I've heard of it ! Why didn't they tell me a few weeks earlier ? I flew my last three VVs to Nagpur for scrapping on 12th March, 1946. They put this show on on April 18th. We could have waited another few weeks, collected another two operational VV pilots from somewhere or other (the two supernumeraries I had with me on that last sad flight had no VV dive experience), found three loads of 250 and 500 pounders and really showed the crowd what skilled dive-bombers could do !
But of course, the RAF never believed in d/bombing, was sorry they'd got the things in the first place, closed their eyes to all the good work we'd done, and wished they'd go away. So not even a mention of us in the write-up - we'd been airbrushed out of history.
No problem with the text size, btw. Just Ctrl and + as usual.
Danny.
