| | Alex Henshaw book now available |
| | Alex Henshaw’s reputation as an outstanding pilot and record breaker has established his place amongst the greats in aviation history. His flying exploits, including the famous 1938 King’s Cup victory and his unbroken record for flying from London to Cape Town and back, together with his wartime role as chief production test pilot for Vickers-Supermarine, contributed to the subject matter for the large number of paintings he commissioned from Michael Turner over a period of 25 years. It was Alex’s wish that this unique collection of paintings should be published in a book, but his death in 2007 came just before the project was completed. Alex had written an appropriate text to accompany each painting, providing a fascinating first-hand account of his many flying adventures. With the addition of many photographs from Alex’s personal albums, Michael has now finished compiling the project they started together, and this eagerly anticipated book is now available.

|  | Royal Navy Uniforms Stamp Set - Paintings by Graham Turner Graham Turner is very proud to see the release of the Royal Mail's latest postage stamp set, the third to feature his paintings charting the development of British military uniforms. The first set, issued in 2007, showed British Army Uniforms, while last year's set charted the development of uniform in the Royal Air Force. Not surprisingly, this latest issue, completing the collection, shows the uniforms of the Royal Navy, from the ornate uniform of an Admiral in Nelson's day to the practical clothing of a current Flight Deck Officer. |
