Thief of Scanned Aviation Photos/Manuscripts

[andy bird]

Unfortunately, an opportunist thief has stolen external hard-drives with an eclectic amount of scanned Coastal Command strike wing photographs, (North Coates, Leuchars, Dallachy, Portreath, Banff, Davidstow Moor etc.,) which I have built up since the early 1990s, together with research, manuscripts, etc., sadly they also included scanned WW1 photographs of No. 1 School of Military Aeronautics in Reading, photographs of Sir Arthur Harris and his family whom I knew from 1977 to 1980's.

A plethora of other aviation material, I'm not sure the person who stole the items will realise what they are, and hope fully the external hard drive's will turn up in a porn shop in the next couple of weeks so Thames Valley Police advise me.

Just thought I'd let you know, should anyone be offered anything.

keep them peeled

When I become king of the world, that will be a hanging offence. Just saying!

What a dreadful thing to happen. Fingers crossed it turns up in safe hands

I also hope they'll turn up but I presume Thames Valley Police mean in a pawn shop instead of a porn shop ????

Hi
Maybe worth keeping a eye on ebay, if the seller views the files, they may try selling it there
