Alex Revell
Dear people,
Alex is very much alive and thankfully, as far as our last email doing quite well, I do not know the details of why he is no longer allowed to post at this forum, so I cannot comment .
But I for one am grateful that such a wonderful historian is still alive and writing.
In fact , look for two chapters by him in next years book release of Steve Anderson's aviation art book !!
Jim

Yes Alex Revell is alive & well & visits the Great War in the Air Forum but at present is off enjoying a Cruise.

Hello Stoney and Felix C.
Alex' last activity here was in July last year. After that he was shot down (= banned). http://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/me...ex_revell.html
Just like Jastaflieger mentioned, I also don't know the reason why he
isn't allowed to post here anymore.
Regards,
Jos
