It has been reported on the uk.rec.subterranea newsgroup that Derek Wood
has
died.

He has written several aviation related books but probbaly the 2 best
known
are "Project Cancelled", the survey of the British aircraft industry from
1945 onwards, and of course "The Narrow Margin", with Derek Depster, one
of
the first comprehensive histories of the Battle of Britain.

I also read that post but cannot find any online references to Mr Woods
death to confirm this. Do you know of any to set my mind at rest?
