I suspected Ferris but thought I would check. I'm sure I have got that one somewhere too. Which haven't you got? Would you like a photocopy? Ross Cheers Brett.

I agree with your points abou the conception of HDAF and you are quite right. What is your source for that? I may pop it in as a footnote. I am glad that people are slowly, and it is actually quite slow, moving away from the idea that the RAF spent all its time thinking about bombing. Actually both CD22 and AP1300 spend a hugh amount of time discussing the problems of co-operation in other spheres of operations. Brett – Cheers for comments.
