Autorenporträt
A leading ex-RAF fighter pilot to his fingertips, Air Commodore Rick Peacock-Edwards, CBE, AFC, flew the Lightning, Phantom, Tornado F2/3, and other high-performance aircraft, and served in senior-ranking positions in the UK, Germany, and the US. During a varied and distinguished career he was closely associated with the Eurofighter Typhoon program and was appointed as the Royal Air Force Inspector of Flight Safety. He ably demonstrated his uncommon skill and determined leadership during the Cold War era, first Gulf War, and elsewhere. A past master of the Honourable Company of Air Pilots, he is a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society and the immediate past vice chairman of the Royal Air Force Club in London. He is equally as engaged in his post-RAF career as he was when a serving officer.
