I am an independent scholar specialising in air power and the history of air warfare. I am currently the Senior Historian within the City Architecture and Heritage Team at Brisbane City Council in Australia. I am also the Editor-in-Chief of 'From Balloons to Drones,' a scholarly website dedicated to air power history: - https://balloonstodrones.com/
