One of comparatively few wartime accounts by a radio operator who began flying pre-WWII with Imperial Airways. His wartime service included National Air Communications, chief radio operator to the Air Observers' Navigation School and finally RAF Ferry Command for the remainder of hostilities. After the war he worked with British South American Airways. SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION.
