Jim, if post war RAF is your bag, I can whole-heartedly recomment reading Sqn Ldr Jerry Pook's book Flying Freestyle - flying JPs, Hunters, Harriers, Tornados, F104, and Drakken in places like Bahrain, Oman, Germany, Falklands, Belize, and of course the UK.
I'm only just over halfway through, in Wildenrath with Harriers...
