Hi guys,

You're very welcome Simon! I have just replied to your e-mail, and it is very nice to hear from you, thank you! You wouldn't believe this, but the photographs you have sent me copies of are virtually identical to the group of photographs I have in my collection. I have one more other than the ones you sent me. It is a very nice group photograph of Capt A Jones - Williams, Capt NA Newnham (sic.) DFC, Maj HV Champion de Crespigny MC, Lieut Hearkley - Magis and Capt Storey in front of a 65 Squadron Sopwith Camel.

Hi Russ,

I would also love to see a decent book on every Squadron. I certainly have the photograph collection which would make the basis of such a series of books, but I spend most of my time collecting structural information on aeroplanes, and photographs, rather than the specific research required in order to publish a book or a series of books. That's the reason I try to let authors and researchers such as yourself know when I am travelling with my photograph collection, as I did last January. Any author is very welcome to use any of my photographs in any such publication.

Lest we forget.
