bdk actuallt it wouldn't have been me these pictures like most of the ones on my site in the Jerry Billings biography were supplied by Mr. Billing and familly, for me to built what i hope is a detailed history of his military and post military career ( still a work in progress ) Have been with Mr. Billing quite a few times this summer, all i can say is he is a incrediable man and i enjoy every minute with him and his wife Karen. Hoping to get down to his place in a few weeks to film him flying around in his Aeronca Champ, should be interesting to say the least.

Cheers Dave
