You're Top Poster: #1   | Five Of The Many Steve Darlow recently launched a new book recording the exploits of five members of Bomber Command. As with his other books, Steve has written another excellent book full of quotes and reminisces from the airmen themselves. He launched the book at the Duxford Air Show (8/9 September 2007) where four of the five attended. Sadly, Benny Goodman passed away a month before the launch (see obituary link below), but the book is a great epitaph.

You're Top Poster: #2  | I just got an email from Steve asking if I was still interested. I said yes (of course) and should have paid for my reserved copy before I went away. Top of the list for tomorrow!
