About this product

Product Information

Known as the Fighting Cocks from its squadron badge, No.43 Squadron has always been one of the premier fighter squadrons in the RAF. It was formed in 1916 and went out to fly in the war torn skies over the Western Front. There its pilots included some of the leading aces of the RFC, with Captain John Trollope shooting down six German aircraft in a single day. Returning to war in 1939, No.43 Squadron fought throughout the Battle of Britain once taking on 80 German aircraft unaided. The unit later moved to the Mediterranean, flying hazardous ground attack missions over North Africa, Sicily and Italy. The squadron again saw action in the 1990s over Iraq and Bosnia, then returned to Iraq for the Gulf War of 2003. Wherever No.43 Squadron has flown it has shown itself to be an elite unit, and its men have become true Heroes of the RAF. This book looks at the heroic men (and more recently women) who have fought with the squadron over the years. It details their exploits in battle, their life with the squadron and in many cases their subsequent careers in the RAF. * Part of the collectable Heroes of the RAF series of books published by Bretwalda Books. Other titles for 2012 include: Guy Gibson VC No.50 Squadron RAFDuxford

Book safely packaged and delivered promptly. Item as described. Very impressed by the quick delivery of this book. This is a great book (I am familiar with earlier editions) and a must have for those interested in audio recording, to get this edition for a great price was a complete no brainer. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed, really, with such a quick delivery- but clearly communicated as to dispatch. Thank you, WeBuyBooks.

I was attracted to this book because of the strap line “real life accounts of fighting in the air from 1916 to the 21st century” and thus expected it to contain quotes from former members of 43. In actuality, the only quote in this book is from the News of the World ! The photos are a disappointment also, with a formation of JU 87A Stukas and a Messerschmitt 109B representing the Squadron’s opposition during the Battle of Britain and a FW 190D9 under evaluation in the USA representing the ‘Anton’ of 1942. Few of the RAF photos are of 43 Squadron aircraft. The Meteor F8 photo is of VZ460, used by the Central Fighter Establishment for tests with rocket projectiles and bombs. So, really this book is only worth purchasing if you have nothing else on the ‘Fighting Cocks’. However, two very good ...

So, really this book is only worth purchasing if you have nothing else on the ‘Fighting Cocks’. However, two very good histories have been produced for 43 Squadron. These are James Beedle’s “43(F) Squadron: History of the Fighting Cocks, 1916-84”, which has just been reprinted and brought up to date, and Andy Saunders’ book in the Osprey Aviation Elite Units which concentrates on WW2. Copies of both of these can be found for less than £10, and often at little more than the cover price of Leonard James’s book.
