Nigel, in spite of Danny's protestations, I'm pretty sure he'll achieve at least the ton before he puts the red line under his last real-life log book entry.
Yes it's pretty amazing to have discovered a wartime Vengeance pilot! My father was the last of the 84 Sqn Vengeance aircrew. Danny is brilliant, of course,... but God!... he keeps me on my toes. I've learned the hard way that writing stuff just from memory is a bad mistake! He soon spots the errors. I have a great deal of respect... and being 94 years old is not easy for anyone. I know that from my father's experience. (Hope you don't mind me discussing you, Danny!)
