CLIVE BENNETT was born during the middle of the 1960s in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, in the heart of the Cotswolds, and has remained within the boundaries of the town for the past sixty years. Leaving secondary school at the age of sixteen with a handful of CSEs/O Levels, he entered local employment with an engineering company, where he attained the position of a Senior Supplier Quality Assurance Engineer. Married to Michelle for over thirty years, Clive is the proud father to two grown-up daughters, Sian and Rhiannon. Clive’s long interest in aircraft and photography, particularly military aviation, has led to the publication of articles and photographs used on a regular basis in both USA- and UK-produced magazines.
