BOOK SERIES PROGRESS

 Book four progresses well and first manuscript is now complete. Publication has been      delayed but should be ready soon. Draft chapters 3, 4 & 5 can be reached by clicking Books and then Queen's Airman The Maritime Days. Books link is on the right hand side of this page.

The three published books continue to sell and can now be obtained from most good book shops, both high street and internet.

 We enter 2008 with high hopes for the fourth book - Q/A The Maritime Days. So far I've kept       fairly close to the storyline published in 2007; adventure in the Arctic islands during 1963. The Russians are experimenting with the climate planning to ground the 'V' Force during the winter of 63/64. Older readers will remember the terrible European winter of 62/63. Was this the result of an earlier smaller scale trial? READ THE BOOK AND FIND OUT.

Dear  Hugh,

We met at the V-Force reunion in Newark when I bought the 'Bomber Days'; I have to say it was a very good read indeed and brought back plenty of memories. Post- Locking I was at Cottesmore on 10 Sqn (Victor B1s) until it disbanded in 1964 and have of course been to Wittering many times since. Ever thought about a film of the book? 

 Keep up the good work, Hugh,

Best regards,

David Kitching

Wing commander RAF (retd)

look forward to the next read!

 

 

Fm Dick Fewster - Halley Bay 1964/65

Hi DickS,this is very weird,i retired this year(july),from RAF Fylingdales after 33years as a civilian technician.Shortly after i got an email from Lew Juckes,he and his wife came down for a days",do you remember",and he had heard that you had written a book.I obtained a copy from Amazon,i really enjoyed it,i dont remember it being quite so exciting on v-force,but it had its moments.I have just returned from a holiday in Australia,Melbourne and surrounding area,when i returned there was an email from black hearted Haynes to say if i was in Sydney to look him up.To close the loop,my wife works in a shoe shop in Filey she rang this morning to say she had a customer who was going for an Antarctic holiday would any of their waterproof boots be any use.I said try the internet there will probably be some information on Antarctic footwear,i thought i would have a look myself,and saw the zfids site with your email address.Hence this letter.I live just outside Filey,my phone number isxxx.Cheers DickF
