Charmingly unsophisticated |
SAAF pilot talks of his flight's attack on a German minelayer in Yugoslavian port Fiume. A 2 hr documentary on the Beaufighter, from the RAAF experience. Lastly, some love for the Typhoon. _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | ||

He climbs, he rises, he soars, he reigns, he hurtles the proud vault of the azure sky. — Georges Besançon | |||
