"Did they feel as I did, fulfilled beyond my wildest dreams, flying a Typhoon to war? Did they savour the pre-filght tension, the challenge and uncertainty of every sortie and, in the background always, fear to be mastered?" David Ince managed to pass the RAF medical board at his third attempt, which led to a highly successful aviation career. After flying Hurricanes and Mustangs he converted to Typhoons and flew from Normandy until the end of hostilities in Europe. He completed almost 150 sorties and was awarded an immediate DFC. He also took a leading part in trials, demonstrations and the early operational use of napalm. By the closing stages of the war he was leading 193 Squadron on shipping strikes in the Baltic.
