The compelling autobiographical sequel to Lancaster Target graphically and humorously describes all aspects of life as a WWII RAF bomber pilot on 'rest'. Mess life and antics intermingle with Jack's real task of instructing trainees on the four-engined Halifax bomber. Following his return to operational duties as a glider pilot, Jack was later posted to the elite Pathfinder force flying Mosquitoes of 1409 Weather Flight as a 'Weather Spy' where his weather signals provided vital information for the advancing bomber stream. An illuminating portrait of RAF life.
