WW2 Pilot info

I have been researching my late father's life and have compiled the information at http://www.bhwood.ukf.net
He spent 4 years flying various plane types during 1939-43 including operations in Spitfires with 64 and 603 squadron in the UK.
The site above includes his flying log which may interest some.
Any comments are gratefully received

Steve,
Great stuff - making your Dad's entire logbook available online. It is a historical gem. I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through it: thanks for sharing this very personal document.

It is time for all of us who are sitting on similar logbooks to follow your example.
