When WW2 broke out the author was already a trained pilot of the RAFVR who was serving as an exchange student in Germany, He was arrested and expelled into Switzerland. On arrival in UK he found he was unable to join a squadron in the RAF so he joined the RN Fleet Air Arm as a pilot. He had to repeat some of his flymg training but with an assessment as exceptional. His ffirst operational posting was to 802 squadron flying Grumman Martlets from escort carrier HMS Audacity, escorting convoys OG74, HG74 and OG76 to Gibraltar.before being torpedoed and sunk. After survivor's leave he was sent to RAF Farborough and was soon assisting in training other pilots in landing on aircraft carriers, particularly with developing techniques with the limited flight decks of the 'Woolworth' Carriers. His aptitude for identifying and overcoming flying problems led to his permanent transfer to testing and experimental flying, at Farborough and Boscombe Down, and after the end of WW2 to the evaluation of the technological advance in German aircraft production, as well as the British development of jet power. He liaised with US aviation industry on all aspects of aircraft development and went on to be appointed Naval Attache to the British Embassy in Bonn in November 1964, in time for the state visit to West Germany of HM Queen in 1965. He later resumed operational appointments and retikred from the Royal Navy in March, 1970, lightly rubbed at tips, dustwrapper lightly rubbed at tips, short tear lower edge upper panel repaired to reverse, ISBN:9780297845652 very good plus in a very good dustwrapper,
