  1. Two photos showing crew of Squadron 15 bomber command together in 1944/5. The person on the left standing and second left squatting is my father James Harris who was the navigator and I am pretty certain the person in the middle of both groups is F/O Bithell who was the pilot. I have a copy of my father's log book detailing 23 operational sorties. The internet has not offered much information and the only piece of interest found was that on returning from that infamous raid on Dresden they were forced to emergency land at Laon in France(reason not known), operated by the Americans at the time, and promptly ran into a Mustang P51. Othe than this I have no information and cannot recall my father ever talking about any of their experiences, and in fact these two photos only came into my possession a couple of weeks ago, I had never seen them before. It is a long shot I know but I wondered if anyone out there had any information of any kind or could identify any of the other crew members. One other snippet of information is that from April 14th 1945 a Wing Commander Macfarlane was designated pilot.
  2. Have used Halfords in the past with some good results having had spray paints specially mixed and matched to a particular colour.
  3. I have just read what i consider to be a well written book and which I found difficult to put down.The title is: A HIGHER CALL ,written Adam Makos, an incredible true story. Has anyone else read this?.

Put Christmas on hold this year as my wife and i were both somewhat under the weather, but pleased to say that I was a lucky "winner" in the advent competition and was able to get in some simulated flying .nice and warmly tucked up indoors. Just about getting better now so hopefully can enjoy the New Year and wish everyone best wishes for 2016. Regards........Geoff.
