'Time Flies: Reflections of a Fighter Pilot' retells the exploits
of David Hamilton's thirty years of service in the Royal Air Force.
He had a wide and varied career; flying Lightnings to defend UK
airspace, operating from HMS Ark Royal in F-4 Phantoms, and
defending the Inner German Border from RAF Wildenwrath. In the UK
MoD he was a staff officer responsible for the Eurofighter project.
He served in the First Gulf War, as the commander of a Tornado F3
Squadron deployed in Saudi Arabia, and worked as General Sir Peter
de la Billiere's air advisor afterwards. He flew with and was
supervisor of the Red Arrows. In NATO's Brussels Headquarters, he
served as a Group Captain, formulating the Rules of Engagement for
the Bosnian air campaign, and then became the deputy station
commander at RAF Leuchars. Hamilton also led the Tornado F3
four-ship flypast over Edinburgh Castle as the Stone of Destiny
returned to Scotland on 30 November 1996, before taking early
retirement from the RAF to work in the defence industry on the
Eurofighter project.
