I'm not sure about anyone else, but I have been constantly remembering ever since I bought CFS1. (about 2 years ago).

Well said ozzy

Nice one Ozzy.  

My daughter gave me First Light as a Father's Day present. I couldn't put it down & finished it in a couple of days. I think I was the first member of this forum to read & recommend it. As you say, it's extremely interesting & well written & I recommend it to anyone with an interest in the RAF, particularly pilot training before the BoB. It also gives you a good idea of what air combat was actually like. I was thinking of writing to Mr Wellum to congratulate him & enquire about a sequel on his experiences testing & fighting in the Hawker Typhoon. It's not often I feel compelled to do something like that.

dammit, i'm seconds away from firing up IL-2:FB and shooting down tons of russians like Erich Hartmann. (the best WW-2 pilot ,352 kills within 2 years)

i recently read a book about the fighter pilots of WW2 ("the fighter pilots" ,by Edward H. Sims). there are some very nice stories in this book, in which many well-known pilots take part, like , R.R. Stanford Tuck (RAF), James Lacey (RAF) ,Douglas Bader (RAF), J.E. Johnson (RAF), H.J. Marseille (LW) , Erich Hartmann (LW), Adolf Galland (LW) and R.S. Johnson (USAAF).
