MARTIN B-57 CAN:BERRA

THE COMPLETE RECORD

ROBERT C. MIKESH:

in some degree to this history about the Canberra. Nor is

there space to mention the specialty area in which a person

was particularly belpful. My gratitude to all must be accepted by

this sincere thanks for their frequent, timely, and willing help. Head-

ing this list - and rightfully so, is Ramona, my patient wife, wbo

occupied herself during times we would otherwise share together,

wbile I was absorbed over tbe long time period of writing this book.

She was always willing to proof read and offer constructive sug-

gestions when needed. Witbout her encouragement and faithful help,

this book would not have been written.

Helping immeasurably with tbe British development portion

of this coverage was Roland P. Beamont, English Electric's test

pilot for the Canberra, and G.M. Hobday, Englisb Electric resident

advisory engineer to the Glenn L. Martin Company during B-57

production. They have provided the balance needed in comparing

the British to tbe American-built aircraft.

Information in many forms that range from personal accounts,

documentation, to photographs have come from many people, all

of which is so necessary to piece together this coverage of the B-57

throughout its many years of service. To achieve this, I have relied

heavily upon the help received from DavidA. Anderton, Douglas J.
