Here is a link to the book. http://www.spitcrazy.com/31avi275-Bert-Houle.jpgThere are some wonderful photos inside. This copy is at the Spitfire Emporium in Kitchener , ON. I have seen the book at "Aviation World" in Toronto also. I am pretty sure both of these spots will mail a copy. The author's address is

Thanks for the link on the book. I'm going to have to get me a copy.
No I'm not a Spit pilot, other then in my imagination
I started researching Spits back in 1980 and focused in on the Spitfire XII as it's my favorite. That lead to contacting many former pilots from the two squadrons that flew the XII, 41 and 91 Squadrons. I was lucky enough to help with their first reunion back in 1986 and flew over to England for it where I got to meet many of them.
If you stop in at this site on 41 Squadron:
http://brew.clients.ch/RAF41Sqdn.htmYou can see many of the photos I've collected over the years as well as profiles of 41 Spits I've done etc. It's not my site, but I've contributed lots of info to it on the Spit XII timeframe. There's a photo there of me in the group picture taken at Coltishall in 86 which is one of my favorite photos. Hence "my" spit pilots
