Air War Italy 1944–45 was translated into Polish as a two-volume softback in A4 format, with some extra aircraft colour profiles which neither my co-authors nor I had any part in nor knew about. Also, not all of the airfield plans from the original were used.

Az olaszországi légi háború: a tengelyhatalmi légierõk története Róma felszabadításától a fegyverletételig (Hajja & Fiai, Debrecen, 2001) ISBN 963 9329 16 9

In 2004, Ferdinando D'Amico discovered on the Internet that there had also been a Hungarian translation published three years previously. This was a complete surprise to the three of us. Airlife Publishing had gone into liquidation by this time and so we were unable find out how this edition had come about without our knowledge. In 2005, Csaba Becze (for whose help we were very grateful) arranged for us to receive copies. This book is a laminated hardback and appears to contain everrything that was in the original apart from the aircraft colour profiles.

Aeromaster produced three sheets of 1/48 scale decals based on Gabriele Valentini's colour profiles from Air War Italy 1944–45. "Air War Over Italy Part I" featured two Luftwaffe and two ANR Bf 109s; "Part II", three ANR Bf 109s and a Croatian one; "Part III" covered three Ju 188s and an Ar 234.

Continuing the things I've written and co-written aside from the material on this website.

I long ago lost count of the number of music reviews I did—getting on for a thousand, I'd guess.
