Re: George Beurling--if looks could KILL!

Guys:

Yes, in 'Spitefires over Malta', in an early flight around Malta, Beurling decided to do suddenly engage in aerobatics--the rest of the flight thought he was taking evasive action & scattered; the flight leader, needless to say was furious---another flying officer ('Laddie' Lucas?) spoke to him & stressed the need for 'teamwork'; Beurling just replied 'sure, Boss' & the matter was closed--reportedly no one in the Malta squadrons had a problem with him again---
And even when he's smiling his eyes still look scary;

NickM
