From training to postings across Canada, Britain, Europe, North Africa, and Asia, these stories capture the excitement, fear, hope, and dread of wartime service. The distinguished contributors to this volume brought back tales of incredible resourcefulness and courage in the face of danger. Central to all of their stories are the planes -- Mosquitoes, Spitfires, Wellingtons, Meteors, Mitchells, and Kittyhawks fill the pages, each exhibiting the special quirks and personalities the pilots came to know and trust.
