He was a happy father. He drove a car. Yet only a few years before he lost both hands and his face was disfigured beyond recognition. - Shot down in France in 1940, he was horribly burnt, spent months in agony in hospitals, was repatriated as useless to Britain. But after innumerable operations he again served in the RAF. - Shirking nothing, he tells the absorbing, heartening story of his victory over physical handicaps and his subsequent career with BEA. .
