Re: British pilot memoirs

Try Gordon Olive's autobiography 'The Devil At Six O'Clock'. He was an RAAF pilot on temporary commission with the RAF during the late 30's.

The first part of the book deals with peacetime flying, the second with his war career. He flew in the Battle Of Britain. His comments on actual flying time and training are most illuminating. The RAF was very much at that time "The Club" to be a member of.
