I CAN say we've been delighted to get some well-known (in the field) names talking, and it'll have both globe spanning input and UK content too.
Watch thus space, more in Dec. -JDK

Wizard papers @kristenauthor and @JDKightly in the @AvCulturesConf @PopcultureUne. Thanks! Here's a couple of Downed ducks from the @IntBCC Digital Archive. There's around 20 POW wartime logs to look at (so far - more coming soon!)
