More Lives Than A Cat: Flying in Three World Air Forces

By Gordon Cammell

"Gordon Cammell served in various Air Force services for twenty years: two years on an exchange assignment with the USAF, four and a half years in the RNZAF and sixteen in the RAF. In that time, he flew thirty-nine types of aircraft including one thousand hours on helicopters in Cyprus and Borneo, where he spent three years in the war against Indonesia. After two and a half years flying jet night fighters he was sent on a two year exchange assignment as a Test Pilot/Project Officer with the USAF at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. Cammell was the radar officer of the trial team for the F 102 Delta Dagger supersonic interceptor, before it was released into general service with the American Air Force. During one of his test flights, he completed a practice radar interception on a B52 bomber target, with a combined closing speed of Mach 2.5. He and his wife have four children that have grown into solid, American citizens, of whom he is very proud."--
