A fact from Władysław Turowicz appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 13 August 2009 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Polish pilot Władysław Turowicz moved to Pakistan, became a citizen, and has since become known as the "Rocket-Missile Man of Pakistan"?
Wow! I did know the finer details of this great man's life and this article is serving this purpose. I sincerely wish that more information on him will be forthcoming. We need to acknowledge the great contribution that non-Muslims have made to Pakistan's development and quickly as the golden generation is fast fading. We cannot afford to be seen as a nation that only praises its Muslim heroes and ignore non-Muslims. Moarrikh, 25th September 2009.
http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historia_polskich_lotnik%C3%B3w_w_PAF There is a link to article in Polish about Poles in RPAF. I've edited the list of those men. It is not complete though.
I'm working on a book about Poles in Pakistan. I've found in the article about air cdre Torowicz, that you know more about lt. Jedryszek (eg that he has been awarded a decoration by marshall Ayub Khan). Could you share the details with me? I would be gratefull for any assistance. Alexxg 10.02.2010 a.glogowski@uj.edu.pl
