Not the Red Baron: One Pilot's Love Story【電子書籍】[ Geoff Pridmore ]

<p>'Not the Red Baron' chronicles the life of civilian display pilot Robin Bowes, who flew a replica Fokker triplane in the guise of the Red Baron at airshows across the UK, Ireland and the Continent between 1983 to 1995.</p> <p>A working-class London boy, Robin grew up in post-war London and the Mediterranean island of Malta. When he moved with his family to Plymouth, Devon, in the early 60s' he worked as a car salesman but was soon making a name for himself racing stock cars and drumming in a local dance band. Self-financed he learned to fly and after gaining his license bought his first plane - an Auster. With sponsorship from a local TV Station, he became a display pilot and was soon earning his living from display flying. Although he was to specialise in flying biplanes, it was his discovery and rebuild of a replica scarlet Fokker triplane that made his name as the man who flew as the Red Baron.</p> <p>The story of Robin Bowes is a story of love, friendship, dedication and personal courage, plus the unique histories of the aeroplanes he flew.</p> <p>Not the Red Baron will appeal to those who look skywards at the sound of an aeroplane's engine; those who are fascinated by history; and those who like a good love story. Not the Red Baron is not simply about aeroplanes, it's about the human condition - hope, aspiration, love and loss.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
