    "Wings on my sleeve"

    I recently finished reading this biography of Captain Eric "Winkle" Brown. "Wings on my sleeve"
    tells his story of his wartime exploits and his test flying. He became the most experienced test pilot of all time! A very brave, cool headed individual!
    I also found a good documentary on Youtube by Timeline. where Eric reflects on his wartime experience and flying the tests of the early Jet age; including the ME262 etc.
    If you like the documentary; you'll love the book! The doc' barely touches the surface.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
