Timeline
Ronald Gustave Kellett, (13 September 1909 – 12 November 1998) was an English stockbroker who became a flying ace during the Second World War while serving in the Royal Air Force.
Kellett was born in Eldon, County Durham, on 13 September 1909 and educated at Rossall School.
After school he worked as a postboy at the Liverpool Stock Exchange before moving to London when he was aged 18 to join the stockbroking firm of Laurence Keen and Gardner.
Kellett joined No. 600 Squadron Auxiliary Air Force in 1933.
He was later to serve with No. 616 Squadron RAF.
During the Battle of Britain he flew with No. 249 Squadron RAF and commanded No. 303 Squadron RAF, the first operational Polish fighter squadron.
He was awarded the Virtuti Militari 5th Class by the Polish Government.
The following words about the Polish fighters were written in the 303 Squadron Chronicle by Kellett when he was leaving the unit:
Kellett had married Daphne in 1939 and they had two sons and three daughters.
We fought together through the great offensive of 1940 and I then knew that the pilots of No. 303 Squadron were not only the best but would also see me through any troubles.
In the month of September, 303 Squadron was on top – no squadron from the Empire could equal the courage and skill of our pilots, no bombing could daunt our airmen.
In December 1940 he formed 96 Squadron based at RAF Cranage, Cheshire to defend the port of Liverpool.
Promotion followed and in March 1941 he went on to command the fighter wing at RAF North Weald.
He was rested from operations at the end of 1942.
With a tally of kills for the war at 5 confirmed 2 probable and 1 damaged, Kellett held the status of a flying ace.
He became a Member of Council for Training at the Air Ministry and in 1943 taught at the Turkish Air Force staff college at Ankara.
He returned to the United Kingdom at the end of the war to be demobilised.
Kellett returned to his work in the London stock exchange with Laurence, Keen and Gardner where he remained until he retired, aged 64.
He rejoined the Royal Auxiliary Air Force and commanded No. 615 Squadron RAF at RAF Biggin Hill.
From 1949 he farmed in Kent and enjoyed the country pursuits of hunting, shooting as well as sailing.
He relinquished his commission on 1 October 1953.
From 1973 Kellet, along with his brother Alfred, planted a small vineyard to produce wine until it was destroyed in the storms of 1987.
Kellet died in Kent 12 November 1998 aged 89, his wife Daphne died in 1994.
