Leuchars was ready for action from the very beginning of the war. As the war progressed more airfields were built including Crail, Grangemouth, Stirling and Donibristle. Martyn Chorlton's thoroughly researched and action packed book describes the history of these airfields, highlights the work carried out from them and describes their overall effect on the war. It will appeal equally to aviation enthusiasts and to readers who recall the era when Scottish skies throbbed with the drone of departing and returning aircraft.
