As a kid I wanted to be a fighter pilot. Poor eyesight, risible spatial awareness and an inability to understand even basic instructions knocked that idea on the head. But even as my career went down a different path, I retained an analyst's interest in aviation. I like to try and understand the military-industrial systems in which aircraft were developed and the doctrines and concepts that governed their employment. I really hope you enjoy watching my videos as much as I enjoy making them. But please remember that this is my passion and my hobby. I am not a professional documentary maker and at best an amateur historian. Please forgive the inevitable mistakes! To get in touch please send a note to [email protected]. I'll do my best to reply, but I'm not the most organised! The companion site to the channel is at www.notapound.com. Subscribing helps me invest in more research and ever-weirder topics.
