John,
I just wanted to thank you for the suggested reading, "Test Pilot at
War", by H. A. Taylor. I purchased a copy that appears to have sat on a
British library shelf for the last 40 years, and just finished reading
it. It was enjoyable and informative reading. I will pass it on to one
of my sons, who is also interested in such historical finds.

Hi all, Knowing the aviation interests of this group, may I recommend a book I have
just read. "Test Pilot at War" by H.A Taylor 1970. This is a series of articles
written between 1960 / 1968 on 24+ aircraft (both British and American) flown by Civilian and
Forces ferry pilots. Just bought myself an Illustrated copy from Amazon for the princely sum
of £8-00 / $10.
Very informative and interesting. Takes me back to my youth at airshows when
piston engined aircraft ruled! Regards John Duggan, Wales, UK
