Bill Litlejohn was a USAAF Fighter veteran and in the end of 1942 he landed in Lisbon Airport when the cockpit of his P-39 became filled with smoke. He was flying to North Africa but was interned in Portugal for a couple of weeks. Some decades latter he helped me a lot in my research and in developing my book "Aterrem em Portugal"...
Latelly I had written him a couple of e-mails but never got a answer.
His wife sent me one e-mail now... He folded his wings on November 28.
My greatest respects to the family...
In 2008 he and his son made a small video were he told his story in first hand...

Keep on flying,
