    My late grandfather Jack Wilson MM trained with the RFC/RAF as a fighter pilot in 1918. He trained in Avros & Bristol Fighters, Crail, Scotland. I went solo after fifteen hours. This morning I’d been up and down a few times before breakfast with Captain Dean. He climbs out of the pilot’s seat and turns to me. You’re off on your own. He talked to me like a father. Twenty minutes to half an hour.He said. I’ll wait for you here and then we’ll go and get some breakfast. So I went up and flew around a bit. All of this & more in a 25,000 word verbatim memoir from interviews conducted with Jack Wilson MM in his 97th year.

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Interestingly the AWM have two images in which Charles appears, courtesy of his time with the AFC. They are low res so you can't see him very well - but worth a look! www.awm.gov.au/collection/P02658.004 www.awm.gov.au/collection/E02660/

    My late grandfather Jack Wilson MM trained in Avros & Bristol Fighters, Crail, Scotland in 1918. Things rarely went smoothly:
    Another morning we were sitting and having breakfast. This plane nose dived into the ground right outside the window, it was a Bristol Fighter. The plane I was being trained to fly. There were both killed outright. A Lieutenant Munday, the instructor and a Flight Sergeant. I’ve got a picture of that. They’re both buried in Crail Cemetery. There are a few of our lads there.
