Proposed Merge[edit]

There exists a page in the draft userspace with unsourced material about Longton. If anyone has time/interest, please merge the pages (including history!). This is well outside my area of expertise.

Expert help needed[edit]

I lack the background to thoroughly understand Longton's air racing career; thus my scattershot coverage. There is a lot more on his air racing career during the Roaring Twenties to be had from http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/index.html, but it is largely incomprehensible to this Yank. Could some more knowledgable editor please give Squadron Leader Longton his aerial racing due?
