Flying Navy - New Zealanders Who Flew In The Fleet Air Arm - David Allison

Flying Navy is the first book published by the Fleet Air Arm Museum of New Zealand. The author, David Allison, is the curator of that museum. Seven hundred and sixty men graduated as trained pilots or observers (navigators), some became TAGs (telegraphist airgunners). Many died in action - hit by flak or enemy fighters, some died on carrier-deck crashes, others were lost at sea, executed by Japanese captors, or flew into mountains at night. In the two world wars 179 young Kiwis died in Fleet Air Arm service. In this book their flying careers are detailed with their photographs printed alongside.
