John Clifford works in corporate communications for a large international company with offices at Hatfield Business Park, the site of the old de Havilland factory. The son of an RAE Farnborough apprentice, Cliffords bedroom ceiling was covered with models, including the iconic Mosquito. He has lived most of his life in Norfolk surrounded by old RAF and USAAF stations. An early but clear memory is of passing the replica red Comet racer that fronted the Hatfield site. Clifford edited the English translations of Tor Idar Larsens Norwegian RAF pilot biographies in Viking Spitfire and Into the Swarm, both published by Fonthill Media.
