"A Yankee Flier with the R.A.F." by Al Avery is a fictional novel written in the early 1940s. The story revolves around Stan Wilson, a Canadian test pilot who joins the Royal Air Force during World War II. The novel paints a vivid picture of air combat, camaraderie among pilots, and the challenges faced by the flying aces of the era, particularly focusing on Stan's experiences and interactions with his fellow pilots. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Stan Wilson as he enters the Royal Air Force mess, setting a tone of anticipation and excitement. We see the dynamic between Stan and other characters, including the brash March Allison, who tests Stan's patience and resolves. As the group receives a call to action, the narrative quickly shifts to the high-stakes world of aerial dogfights. Stan's fervent desire to prove himself is palpable as he prepares for combat, echoing the themes of bravery and the quest for glory amidst the dangers of war. This initial chapter sets the stage for a thrilling journey filled with challenges in the skies, personal conflicts, and the underlying tension of maintaining a disguise that could affect Stan’s future in the R.A.F.
