Published by Fonthill Media 2018, no stated edition but believed to be FIRST EDITION, Hard Cover with Dust Jacket, 9.5 x 6.5 inches, 208pp, illustrated. With the arrival of the RAF’s modern 4-engined heavy bombers (the Stirling, Halifax & Lancaster) the need for an on-board technical expert the assist the pilot evolved. This enthralling narrative explains the origin of Flight Engineers, their training and the complexity of keeping large bombers in the air at night. Entrants underwent courses of varying lengths but actual flying training time was very sparse. Remarkably it was not unknown for these men to qualify for their flying badges without ever having flown in an aircraft!
