The book fairy visited 54Burg.
And he (she?) left
Avro Lancaster, Lincoln and York in post-war RAF service 1945-1950 by Martin Derry Dam Busters by James Holland Vulcan 607 by Rowland White A Bucket of Sunshine by Mike Brooke F-4 Phantom II by William R Peake Wings on My Sleeve by Eric Brown and The Lightning Boys by Richard Pike Something was mumbled about more coming if I am good. Keep your fingers crossed and hope he doesn't have a nanny cam!:8 |
I've told the fairy that Chickenhawk's a good read...
Chickenhawk (book) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
I got that book some time ago. It is an interesting book about helicopter ops in Viet Nam. He wrote a sequel, as an aside.
|
Reading Vulcan 607 now. Very nice read.
|
You want to read 'Think like a Bird' by Alex Kimbell
Just the best Arc |
If you are enjoying VULCAN 607 then I would urge you to read STORM FRONT and PHOENIX SQUADRON. The author deserves a plug, they are fantastic reads and provide a great insight into some well less know British Military exploits.
|
Thank you, Terry. Finished 607 today, and yes I will chase down the others.
Arclite, I will look into that book as well. |
I recommend that you read 'First Light' by Geoffrey Wellum. Mr Wellum flew Spitfires during the Battle of Britain at the age of eighteen.
|
Yes, you're not the first person to suggest "First Light". I should make a list.
|
you're not the first person to suggest "First Light" Even more fascinating is that Squadron Leader Wellum is still with us 73 years later; Geoffrey Wellum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
I've told the fairy that Chickenhawk's a good read... Not just a good read, one of the best aviation books about Vietnam. Chief, there's a rivet missing here. Of course, it probably doesn't matter much, with this bullet hole next to it. |
