FROM VULCAN TO SPITFIRE AND BACK: A Life in Aviation

A humorous, unguarded, and often self-deprecating account of what it was like to be part of an RAF squadron during the Cold War -- everything from burning pianos to a mid-air collision in a Tornado. It is also about the simple joys of flying, whether in the cockpit of the enormous delta-winged Vulcan or behind the sprightly controls of the inimitable Spitfire, and the camaraderie that comes with it, both in military and civil aviation. Contains 16 color and 48 black and white illustrations.
