Ian Hall spent thirty-two years as an RAF pilot, retiring as a group captain. He then flew turbo-props for regional airlines for a further twelve years. Married with three grown-up children, he lives in Norfolk. His flying experience with the RAF included fighter-bomber tours on Hunters, Phantoms, Jaguars and Tornados. He had the pleasure of commanding a Tornado squadron, during which time he saw operational service over southern Iraq. An additional delight was a three-year duty flying the F-5 'Freedom Fighter' with the Royal Norwegian Air Force. He transferred to civil aviation as a direct-entry captain, operating mainly from his local base at Norwich. Following retirement, and in addition to pursuing hobbies in the local area related to trains and boats, he took up the pen. His Endeavour Press historical novels, available on Kindle, are 'Storm at Sunset', a tale of a black episode in the history of a Dakota squadron in the Far East, and 'Upwards', the incredible story of an RAF pilot who, after a heart-lung transplant, flies fighter-bombers again. His non-fiction titles for Grub Street Publishing include 'Jaguar Boys', Tornado Boys' and 'Fast Jets and Other Beasts', the last including many of his own flying-related memoirs. He has also, for Pen & Sword, done 'A Goldstar Century', the history of 31 Squadron RAF.
