Photos and letters of Col. Scott
by Brian Cauchi

Here are photos and letters that Col. Scott had sent to my neighbor Mr. J. Consiglio in Malta. Mr. Consiglio loved the history of the aces and lived during the sixties and so managed to write to most aces who were still very alive at that time. He got me started on modelling and that's why I also have a love of the aces. I used to visit regularly to play with his son who has since become a doctor and now lives in the UK. I was always fascinated by the files full of letters and photos and years after he died I asked his widow whether I could copy these. Well, since none of his sons were interested, I got the lot including an authentic RAF leather flying cap with goggles and mic cord and also his collection of books. At the time he was quite an authority on aces and corresponded with fans worldwide. He also wrote articles in an American magazine of the time called His Air Dec.
