Sir Sidney Cotton – Pioneer airman inventor, WW1 & 2 (MSFS)

[FrankPilot]

Australian Sir Sidney Cotton (1894-1969) in WW1 pioneered the famous SidCot flying jacket, rear-facing machine guns, & upward firing guns to take out Zeplins, & in WW2, aerial spy reconnaissance photography, & special camouflage & speed enhancements for Spitfires. He was a colleague of Ian Fleming & part-inspiration for Fleming’s James Bond character. Not bad for a boy from outback Queensland, Australia. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.
