G'day from Australia

G'day,

I thought a recruit from the land 'down under' might not go astray and that I should introduce myself. I have an interest in WWII, particularly in aviation, that goes back as far as I can remember. My father and mother both served with the Royal Australian Air Force and Dad saw action in WWII and Korea.

Also, I have a deep interest in the stories of aircrew from WWII and have been honoured to interview a number of them over the years. My main goal is to record their stories for their families, whilst some find their way to print. Most notably I came to know SQNLDR K.B. McGlashan AFC who quite literally flew from Dunkirk to D-Day. His remarkable story ultimately became my first book, "Down to Earth".

I look forward participating in your forum.

Cheers

Owen

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the welcome. What are your titles?

"Down to Earth" was released in July by Grub Street, here's a link relating to it. http://www.owenzupp.com/Down_to_Earth.html

Cheers

Owen
