Since I set up my website I have helped many people find answers to questions about relatives who served in the Royal Air Force, mostly during WW1 but also during the inter-war years. Most of the men investigated were pilots or observers who flew with 6 Squadron. After more than fifteen years researching for my books, I have developed a knack of finding answers to questions in a matter of hours that someone new to the subject might take years of frustration in not producing a result. Sadly, not all of my answers were well received, as for three of the men, I proved conclusively that their claims to glory were nothing more than a 'flight of fancy'.

I was also impacted by such a claim. Though my grandfather never talked about the war, it was a family legend that he was a pilot in WW1 who flew a Sopwith Camel scout, whereas in truth he served in the Royal Flying Corps as a corporal wireless mechanic. This fact only came to light when I decided to write a book about him, 'For God, England & Ethel' and discovered that heroes come in many shapes and sizes as well as occuptations.
