Odd you should mention that book. I'm sitting here with my copy of "Winged
Victory" by Geoffrey Perret, published by Random House in 1993, in hand. It's
about the Army Air Forces in World War II, and has nary a mention of Sopwith
Camels anywhere in it. (^-^)))

I guess the copywrite laws only provide protection for the author and his works
for a limited period of time.
