Description
World War Two Spitfire pilot Owen Hardy was probably the last New Zealand ace to tell his story. That he survived the war unharmed owed as much to luck as it did to his ability as a fighter pilot. Unable, though, to settle in civilian life afterwards in New Zealand, he returned to the RAF for the second phase of a remarkable career.
