Squadron Leader Jock Maitland

Post by smudgersmith218 »

Gents,

A fighter jock, but a brave pilot.

Squadron Leader Jock Maitland, who has died aged 87, flew fighters during the Korean War and the Suez and Oman conflicts before developing the wartime Battle of Britain airfield at Biggin Hill into a successful civil airport.
