DANCING IN THE SKIES

BY

TONY JONSSON

PUBLISHED; GRUBB STREET

FIRST EDITION 1994

Thorsteinn Elton Jonsson was born in Reykjavik,  Iceland in October 1921. His mother was  English and this, coupled with a desire for adventure  and to become a pilot, led him to travel to the UK  in April 1940 to join the RAF. Turned down again  and again, he persisted and was eventually  accepted into the Force at the age of 18.  After training, he was posted to 17 Squadron to fly  Hurricanes, then 111 Squadron on Spitfires. He  flew countless missions and participated with  much success in Operation Torch in 1942/3 and  was awarded a DFM. In 1944 he was posted to 65  Squadron, flying Mustang IIIs, and scored well  over Normandy that summer.  His second tour ended in December 1944 where-  upon he retumed to Iceland to fly Martinet target  tugs until May 1945. Back in the UK, he converted  to multi-engined types, and was with 187 Squadron  until leaving the RAF in December 1946.  Dancing in the Skies is Tony Jonss0n’s racy,  exciting, informative and at times very funny  account of his career in the cockpit in WW2, when  he achieved a total score of 8 destroyed, 1  probable and 2 damaged - a remarkable feat for the  only Icelander to fly with the RAF in the war years.  This is a very special, personal account, the more  so as it has been translated by the author himself  from his autobiography, which appeared originally  in Iceland and was met with great critical acclaim,  becoming a bestseller overnight.
