It was Gordon Sharp's experiences as a six-year-old boy in the
Glasgow Blitz that first set him on the path towards a medical
career. By the time Gordon had left school he had two firm goals:
to specialise in aviation medicine, and to try his hand at
broadcasting. He managed both in style, becoming Commanding Officer
of the RAF's Aviation Medicine Training Centre and later Head of
Division at the Institute of Aviation Medicine. During his time in
the RAF Medical Branch he carried out pioneering work in the
development of safer systems for aircrew. As a member of the ITN
studio team during the Apollo space programme in the 1970s, Gordon
became a familiar face to TV audiences. Then, just when he thought
life held no more surprises, he found himself flying high in a
different sense when he was invited to serve as 'Physician
Extraordinary' to Her Majesty The Queen Mother. Going for a spin is
Gordon's fascinating and entertaining story.
