Jeffrey Ethell
Jeffrey Ethell (1947–1997) was an American aviation author and pilot who wrote extensively on aviation and military matters.〔("Jeffrey L Ethell references, articles and publications" ). ''Theaviationindex.com''. Retrieved: 9 May 2011.〕 He was killed on June 6, 1997, when the restored P-38 Lightning he was flying crashed at Tillamook, Oregon, while preparing for an airshow to honor his father.
Starting at a remarkably young age, Ethell, published an extensive series of technical studies of WWII-era aircraft and eventually authored 60 books and over 1,000 magazine articles covering all aspects of aviation.〔http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/topgun/ethell2.html〕 He soloed at 18 and logged over 4,800 hours in over 210 different types of aircraft, including most of the various warbirds of the allied and Axis sides from WWII.〔http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/topgun/ethell2.html〕 His works on color photography of the WWII era brought to life an era which too many thought had only been filmed in black and white.
While attending college in Tennessee in the 1960s, Ethell received several research grants from the National Air & Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution,〔http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/topgun/ethell2.html〕 and went on to guest lecture extensively at numerous colleges and academic institutes. His co-authored study of the first American daylight attack on Berlin has often been compared to the works of Cornelius Ryan and Stephen Ambrose in presenting a balanced account of one of the most pivotal events of WWII, the first daylight deep penetration raid against the capital of Nazi Germany. He was featured in the PBS ''Nova'' documentary "Top Gun Over Russia" about the military aircraft of the former Soviet Union, and appeared as an expert commentator on numerous documentaries.〔http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/topgun/ethell3.html〕
His extensive collection of WWII colour photographs was made available online after his death.〔FlyPast, Number 304, November 2006〕
