Just a follow up..
You may all remember that I posted a 'wants list' for books I need for my collection (all out of print). Well I have just managed to get the last one on that list. Boy am I a happy bunny. Just had to shout from the rooftops
Now I suppose I will have to track down a copy of Victor Binghams Whirlwind book, (no luck so far I have just tried the usual sources!)

BTW - For the Brits out there I head this joke today..
An American fighter pilot was flying his F-18 aircraft over Afghanistan, when he noticed a flying carpet on his left hand side, manned by a man with a machine gun. He looked to his right and saw another carpet alongside, also manned by a man with a machine gun.
He thought ' I've got to get out of this', so he accelerated flat out and put his plane into a high speed loop and came up behind both carpets, which he shot down.
On arriving back at his Aircraft Carrier, he was told to report to the captain immediately.
'You idiot !' said the captain. 'We saw what you did on radar and now we're in a load of trouble'.
'What do you mean?' said the pilot, 'I shot both carpets
'I know that!' said the captain, 'but they were Allied Carpets!'
