Raimund Půda

In ‘A Pilot’s Life in Active Service from 1930-1957’, the story of successful and inspiring pilot Raimund Puda is told. From his dreams of becoming a pilot as a young boy from a small village in Czechoslovakia to achieving this dream and travelling all over the world as a fighter pilot. It is easy for us in the 21st century to be oblivious to the experiences, tough decisions and sacrifices made by those who fought to allow us the freedoms we take for granted. This biography brings to life the experiences of a war-time pilot, his training and the reality of re-adjusting to life post-war.
