'Hullo Russia, Goodbye England' is a novel. In the story, the character, Flight Lieutenant Silk, a twice-decorated Lancaster pilot in WW II, rejoins the R.A.F. and qualifies to fly the Vulcan bomber. Vulcan's only role here is to retaliate against a Russian nuclear attack as he strikes second.

About the author

Derek Robinson

Robinson never flew a combat aircraft and researched everything, and the results are among the least romantic accounts of air war anybody has published. Goshawk Squadron reached the Booker shortlist in 1971 with a Royal Flying Corps commander who teaches his pilots to shoot enemies in the back because chivalry gets young men killed.
