Großbritannien betrieb mehrere Ju 52.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDas Flugzeug wurde erstmals im Spanischen Bürgerkrieg eingesetzt, wo es als einfacher, aber effektiver Bomber bei der Legion Condor eingesetzt wurde. Von da an setzte die Luftwaffe es an allen Fronten im Westen, im Mittelmeer und im Osten ein. Ein Beispiel flog auch im Irak. Die Ju 52 diente als robustes Transportflugzeug, das oft unter den widrigsten Bedingungen mit Eis oder Staub eingesetzt wurde und Menschen, Tiere, Lebensmittel, Vorräte, Munition, Post und Ersatzteile transportierte, die für deutsche Militäroperationen, wie zum Beispiel die Versorgung in Nordafrika, lebenswichtig waren Flugrouten in Demjansk, Stalingrad und auch in den Ardennen im Jahr 1944. Es wurde auch in die Rolle eines Krankenwagens und der Minenjagd umgewandelt und als Wasserflugzeug umgebaut. Nach dem Krieg flog die Ju 52 noch in den 1980er Jahren weiter, ein Beweis für ihre Stärke und Zuverlässigkeit. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42290808914094,"sku":"9781906537463","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/products\/91dz9hB4lrL_36d6e2a2-af7d-42a6-a36e-47181bc3734e.jpg?v=1646321867"},{"product_id":"mistel-german-composite-aircraft-and-operations-1942-1945","title":"MISTEL","description":"\u003ch1 style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\" id=\"product-title\"\u003e Mistel \u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\" id=\"product-subtitle\"\u003eDeutsche Verbundflugzeuge und Operationen 1942-1945 \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid #ffffff; height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\" id=\"product-details\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eAutor:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003eRobert Forsyth\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e \n\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eSprache:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003eEnglischer Text\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003eHardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eAbmessungen:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003e9\" x 12\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eSeiten:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003e238 Seiten\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eFotos:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003e400 Fotos, maßstabsgetreue Zeichnungen und Kunstwerke\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e \n\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eKarten:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003eeinige Karten\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eHerausgeber:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003eCrecy Publishing\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\" id=\"product-barcode\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\" class=\"product-detail-name\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"product-detail-text\"\u003e9781910809815\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\" id=\"product-sku\"\u003e Art.-Nr.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e517 n.

Sein unbesiegbarer Mut und seine absolute Entschlossenheit machten ihn nicht nur in Großbritannien zu einer Legende, sondern auch unter seinen Feinden, denen der Anblick seines einsamen Nieuport Scout Angst einjagte. 1914 trat er in die britische Armee beim 2.\/7. Bataillon (Robin Hoods) des Sherwood Foresters, Notts und Derby Regiments ein. Im Oktober 1914 hatte er den Rang eines Sergeants erreicht und wurde im selben Monat zum Leutnant seines eigenen Bataillons ernannt. Im Juni 1915 bezahlte er Privatunterricht und ließ sich in Hendon zum Piloten ausbilden. Im Oktober 1915 erhielt er das Royal Aero Club-Zertifikat und beantragte die Versetzung zum Royal Flying Corps. Nachdem ihm die Versetzung gewährt worden war, bildete er sich in Norwich und Upavon weiter aus und erhielt am 22. Januar 1916 das Pilotenbrevet. Am 16. Mai 1916 eröffnete er mit der Bristol Scout 5512 seinen Punktestand und schoss einen Albatros C-Type über Beaumont ab. Am 29. Mai 1916 schoss er zwei LVG C-Typen ab, während er seine Nieuport 5173 flog. Kapitän Albert Ball absolvierte seinen letzten Flug am 7. Mai 1917, als er SE5 A4850 als Teil einer elfköpfigen Jagdpatrouille in den Kampf gegen die Jagdstaffel 11 flog. unter der Leitung von Lothar von Richthofen. Es war ein sehr bewölkter Tag. Albert verfolgte Lothars Albatros Scout, der verwundet abstürzte. Dann wurde von vielen Beobachtern beobachtet, wie Albert aus einer Wolke sprang und abstürzte. Er starb wenige Minuten später in den Armen einer Französin, Madame Cecille Deloffre. In nur 15 Monaten stieg er aus dem Nichts in die Spitzengruppe der zeitgenössischen Kampfpiloten auf. In diesem Zeitraum wurden ihm das MC, das DSO und zwei Bars verliehen, und es wurden ihm mindestens 44 Siege zugeschrieben. Er wurde posthum mit dem Victoria-Kreuz ausgezeichnet. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40781670973614,"sku":"9780947554897","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780947554897.jpg?v=1712871667"},{"product_id":"the-battle-of-britain","title":"Die Luftschlacht um England ","description":"\u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e Die Luftschlacht um England \u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e \n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eAutor:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eJohn Frayn Turner\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eSprache\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglisch\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eSoftcover\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eAbmessungen:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e6\" x 9,5\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eSeiten:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e256\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e \n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFotos:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003edurchgehend s\/w-Abbildungen\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eHerausgeber:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePen and Sword Aviation\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781848842434\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003e Artikel-Nr. 9781848842434 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eDie Luftschlacht um England war einer der entscheidenden Konflikte in der Geschichte der Zivilisation. Es begann offiziell am 10. Juli 1940 und endete am 31. Oktober 1940. Hitlers Pläne für die Invasion Englands wurden durch zwei Kampfflugzeugtypen, die Spitfire und die Hurricane, und eine relative Handvoll junger Piloten, The Few, vereitelt. Dieses schöne Buch erzählt davon die bedeutsame Geschichte dieses ungleichen Kampfes, von den Schlüsselereignissen im Vorfeld bis hin zu anschaulichen Tagesberichten, die die Aktion aufzeichnen, und Kommentaren zur Strategie. Aufgrund der persönlichen Kenntnis des Autors über Schlüsselfiguren gibt es viele spannende Berichte aus erster Hand von Stars wie Peter Townsend, Bob Standford Tuck, Douglas Bader, Richard Hillary, Sailor Malan und anderen großen Männern. Dieses umfassende Buch behandelt die Beiträge der drei Gruppen des Fighter Command (10, 11 und 12) sowie die Schlüsselrollen des Bodenpersonals der RAF und WAAF, ohne deren unermüdlichen Einsatz die Schlacht verloren gegangen wäre. Ein hervorragendes Buch, das in seiner Klasse kaum zu übertreffen ist. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40788227063982,"sku":"9780859791472","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791472.jpg?v=1712873501"},{"product_id":"luftwaffe-eagle","title":"Luftwaffenadler ","description":"\u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e Luftwaffenadler \u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eDie Geschichte eines deutschen Fliegers aus dem Zweiten Weltkrieg \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid #ffffff; height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eSprache\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglisch\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eTaschenbuch\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eAbmessungen:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e6\" x 9,2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eSeiten:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e224\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eFotos:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003edurchgehend illustriert\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e \n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eHerausgeber:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eGrub Street Publishing\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: #ff3d3d; font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px;\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781911667308\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003e Artikel-Nr. 9781911667308 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid #ffffff; height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eIn diesen fesselnden Memoiren erinnert sich Erich Sommer an sein Leben im Vorkriegsdeutschland und an die Abenteuer, die er während des Zweiten Weltkriegs als Flieger für die Luftwaffe erlebte. Erich wurde 1912 als dritter Sohn eines Bezirksrichters geboren und wuchs nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg in einer Atmosphäre der Unsicherheit auf. 1932, kurz vor der Machtergreifung der Nationalsozialisten, begann er eine Ausbildung zum Brauereiingenieur. Die Auswirkungen, die dies auf das Leben des Durchschnittsdeutschen hatte, werden ausführlich beschrieben. Als 1939 der Krieg ausbrach, wurde er Navigator und diente erfolgreich bei der ersten Wegfindungseinheit der Luftwaffe, dann bei einer speziellen und wenig bekannten Kontrollkommission in Marokko, um das zu überwachen Entwaffnung der französischen Vichy-Streitkräfte. Anschließend diente er als Navigator bei einem Höhengeschwader und flog den relativ seltenen Ju 86-Bomber mit Druckkabine bei Einsätzen während der Luftschlacht um England. Anschließend ging er an die russische Front und ließ mit Radar ausgerüstete Ju 88 fliegen, um die Bewegungen der sowjetischen Flotte zu verfolgen. Dies führte zu einer Ausbildung zum Piloten, woraufhin sich Erich einem Spezialkommando anschloss, das mit dem revolutionären Arado Ar 234-Jet ausgerüstet war. Kurz darauf flog Erich den weltweit ersten Aufklärungsflug über die Invasionsfront. Er beendete seinen Krieg in Italien. Nach dem Krieg zog Erich mit seiner Frau nach Australien, wo er bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 2005 friedlich lebte. Mit einer ausführlichen Einleitung des renommierten Luftwaffenhistorikers J. Richard Smith und durchgehend illustriert mit Fotografien aus privaten Familienalben bietet Luftwaffe Eagle einen faszinierenden Einblick in die Welt das Leben eines außergewöhnlichen Piloten und Navigators der Luftwaffe.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid #ffffff; height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40788458995886,"sku":"9781910809280","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809280.jpg?v=1712872651"},{"product_id":"focke-wulf-ta-155","title":"Focke-wulf Ta 154","description":"\u003ch3 id=\"product-headline-1\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e Überarbeitete und erweiterte Ausgabe \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e Focke-wulf Ta 154\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003e Tag- und Nachtabfangjäger der Reichsverteidigung der Luftwaffe \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eAutor:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eDietmar Hermann\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eSprache:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglischer Text\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eAbmessungen:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9\" x 12\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e \n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eSeiten:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e224 Seiten\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFotos:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e350 s\/w-Fotos und Zeichnungen\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eHerausgeber:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\n \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809945\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003e Artikel-Nr.

Es wurde von Professor Kurt Tank, dem Designer der Fw 190, und einem kleinen Team erstklassiger Designer und Ingenieure entworfen. Die Ta 154 kombinierte modernste Technologie mit eleganter Aerodynamik, um ein innovatives und leistungsstarkes Kampfflugzeug zu schaffen. Inspiriert durch die britische de Havilland DH 98 gab das deutsche Luftfahrtministerium 1943 eine Spezifikation für ein schnelles Angriffsflugzeug aus Holz heraus -Bomber mit Jumo 211-Triebwerken. Focke-Wulf erhielt den Zuschlag und wandte bei der Holzmontage innovative Konstruktionsmethoden an. Anstelle eines Schnellbombers würde sich der resultierende Ta 154 als experimenteller Nachtjäger mit Schleudersitzen, fortschrittlicher Avionik und Radar herausstellen. Der sogenannte Moskito flog erstmals im Juli 1943 und erwies sich im Kampf gegen die He 219 und Ju 388 als schneller und erreichte etwa 700 km\/h.\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Dies ist eine \u0026lt;b\u0026gt;erheblich überarbeitete und erweiterte\u0026lt;\/b\u0026gt; Version von a Das Buch erschien ursprünglich 2006 in kleiner Auflage in deutscher Sprache und wird daher für englischsprachige Leser neu sein.

What began as a jet-powered replacement for the KC-97 to refuel Strategic Air Command's growing B-47 and B-52 bomber fleet soon evolved into America's first military heavy jet transport, an airborne command post platform, a testbed that enabled scientists to study the Earth, send men to the Moon and understand the power of the atom. Other variants of the KC-135 included a reconnaissance airframe that monitors arms agreements, gathers intelligence to understand the intentions and capabilities of potential enemies and provides real-time intelligence in combat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a revised and expanded third edition of the definitive study of this remarkable aircraft. The author is a former USAF pilot qualified on 17 types of KC-135s, EC-135s, and RC-135s, who brings both personal experience and a broad historical understanding to this definitive work on one of the most significant military aircraft of the Cold War and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis latest edition of Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker: More than a Tanker incorporates 64 additional pages of new material, photographs, and tables.

The area covered includes most of the counties of Gloucestershire, Hampshire and Wiltshire, along with those of Dorset, Somerset, Devon, Cornwall, the Isles of Scilly, and the Channel Islands.The whole of British aviation history is reflected here from the birth of military aviation at Larkhill, flying training at Old Sarum during the World War I and at Upavon during the 1930s, to fighter operations from Charmy Down during the World War II. Postwar developments at Filton and Boscombe Down are supplemented by recent activities at Culdrose, St.Mawgan, Yeovilton, and Lyneham. Accounts of the construction and operational use of the stations, with the aircraft types flown and units involved are illustrated by a wealth of photographs, many of them previously unpublished.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991678513326,"sku":"9780859791212","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791212.jpg?v=1712871579"},{"product_id":"airline-tail-colours","title":"Airline Tail Colours","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eAirline Tail Colours\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e4.72\" x 7.24\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e112\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ecolor photographs throughout\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809327\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809327\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eFor aviation enthusiasts, regular travellers indeed for anyone with even a passing interest in commercial aviation, the easiest way of identifying an airliner is by glancing at the artwork on its tail. This book is a handy, pocket-sized guide to the tail colours used by airlines from every corner of the globe making it a useful basic aid to the recognition of those individual airlines. The first edition of this best selling, popular and accessible guide was published in the late 1990s and subsequent editions followed regularly to keep pace with the frequent changes in their tail colours that many airlines regularly introduce. This new 5th edition has once again been fully updated. It includes photos of the tail markings of approximately 600 of the world's leading airlines - all in full colour. The book also includes additional information such as each airline's three-letter code (used for flight numbers), its international registration prefix and the ITU country code which indicates its main operating base as well as the aircraft types operated by that airline using IATA codes. The airlines featured are arranged alphabetically and helpful decode tables ensure that the book is user friendly and easily understood making this the perfect addition to any aviation enthusiast's collection.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991681560750,"sku":"9781910809327","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809327.jpg?v=1712871654"},{"product_id":"american-aircraft-development-of-wwii","title":"American Aircraft Development of WWII","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eAmerican Aircraft Development of WWII\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eSpecial Types 1939 - 1945\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791885\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791885\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThe years of World War II saw the greatest single leap in US military aircraft technology and design, from the relatively fragile pre-war designs to the very edge of the supersonic era. Many remarkable aircraft came and went in quick succession with some missions and types disappearing altogether. Indeed, there were scores of little known or minimally documented aircraft projects which significantly advanced technology of aeronautics, propulsion, aircraft systems, avionics and weapons, whilst never achieving full-rate production and deployment. Focusing almost exclusively on official programs and aircraft that actually entered development, American Aircraft Development of WWII, Special Types 1939-1945 opens with the ‘state of the art’ designs at the beginning of the war, to the advances during the conflict itself. These so-called ‘special types’ are far less widely known than fighter and bomber designs, but no less important, and include armed photo reconnaissance aircraft, catapult launched seaplanes, autogyros, tactical haulers and armed drones. Other designs covered include ‘one-off’ experimental aircraft, rocket boost, floats and skis added to landplanes, fighters with second seats added for training, engine testbeds, ‘oddball’ experiments and more besides. Illustrated through-out with 3-view drawings and rare photographs, many of little-known and unusual aircraft and missiles, American Aircraft Development of WWII, Special Types 1939-1945 tells the stories of engineering teams and test pilots struggling against short schedules and tight resources to develop new aircraft that pushed the bounds of technology. This book is a fitting testament to the epic and sometimes life-threatening accomplishments which were every bit as vital to the war effort as actual combat operations themselves.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991682609326,"sku":"9780859791885","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791885.jpg?v=1712871673"},{"product_id":"american-secret-projects-2","title":"American Secret Projects 2","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eAmerican Secret Projects 2\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eAirlifters\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.27\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e192\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOver 400 photographs and drawings\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809167\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809167\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThis book charts the history of the US airlifter from its origins in World War II to today's transport giants.  In doing so, it reveals and describes numerous designs which never saw the light of day, examining the thinking behind them and giving insights into why they did, or did not, succeed. In many ways, this untold story of aviation history reflects both the changing face of conflict and the exercise of geo-political power; it has also had a major bearing on the development of civil aviation. The book has been made possible by the authors being given unprecedented access to major aerospace company archives, uncovering scores of design proposals which have never previously been revealed. It is profusely illustrated, much in full colour, with artwork and three-view drawings extracted from manufacturers' archives and with photographs of original project models. As well as describing how airlifters were progressively developed to meet ever-more demanding military transport requirements, the book looks at other roles for which they were adapted, from nuclear test-beds to Space-Shuttle carriers.

Describing over 100 unknown, or little known, designs, including all the competitors to the C-5 and entries for the Tri-Service V\/STOL transport competition, the book has over 400 illustrations, the majority of which have never previously been published, detailing some of the largest and most incredible aircraft ever conceived.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991684018350,"sku":"9781910809334","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809334.jpg?v=1712871702"},{"product_id":"american-secret-projects-4","title":"American Secret Projects 4","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eAmerican Secret Projects 4\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eBombers, Attack and Anti-Submarine Aircraft 1945-1974\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.27\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e360\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eApprox. 500 photographs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809907\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809907\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eHaving completed the revision of his series of British Secret Projects titles, Tony Buttler has now begun the same treatment for his early volumes on American Secret Projects. This first revised book describes the design and development of American bomber and attack aircraft from the end of World War II to the mid-1970s, both for the Air Force and the Navy. Once again the emphasis is placed on designs that were never built, particularly within the context of competitions between the various manufacturers against official requirements.The projects and programmes described range from the largest and most outrageous ideas for heavy strategic bombers down to much smaller anti-submarine and ground attack types. The majority of the work has been compiled from extensive research using primary source material and this second edition includes many additional and previously unseen three-view drawings, original artist's impressions and photographs of manufacturer's models. They are accompanied by a new selection of photos, many in colour, which makes this revised and expanded edition a great resource for modellers in particular.

Using personal accounts from both German and Allied survivors, Bloody Biscay relates the initial tribulations of the unit, the height of its success in spring and summer 1943, its battles against overwhelming odds and its eventual annihilation over the Normandy beaches in June 1944.The book contains comprehensive appendices detailing the unit’s commanding officers, known aircrew, all of its known ‘kills’ matched to Allied losses and its combat losses.

Never destined to be one of the big players, they produced a relativelymodest output of prototype aircraft and then in 1937 a series of bombers and a small batch ofcivilian two seaters. The relatively unsuccessful Defiant was their best known aircraft.However, hidden from public view was a prolific output of proposals, trials and inventions. Frombiplane fighters through the novel turret fighters and into the supersonic age with VTOL lift-fan jets,Boulton Paul were always at the forefront of development.Based upon over 60 years of research, this book recounts many of these radical and innovativeprojects using development layouts, final schemes, drawings and photographs of mock-ups, modelsand prototype airframes. Many projects are recreated in CAD and other drawings by the authorpreviously an apprentice and a technical engineer with the company and archivist of the BoultonPaul Association.This book sheds much new light on the activities of a hitherto often overlooked company which wasin many respects at the forefront of aeronautical innovation in Britain for several decades.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991695487150,"sku":"9781910809488","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809488.jpg?v=1712871870"},{"product_id":"britains-aircraft-industry","title":"Britain's Aircraft Industry","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eBritain's Aircraft Industry\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eTriumphs and Tragedies since 1909\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e368\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e300 photographs and artworks\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809426\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809426\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eBritain established the world's first aircraft factory in 1909 after the Short brothers met up with the American Wright brothers and struck a deal. The industry expanded rapidly to rise to the challenge of World War One with such thoroughbreds as the Camel and the SE.5. The post-conflict slump proved to be difficult but classics such as the Moths, the Hart family and the Gladiator maintained Britain's leadership. Another war loomed and iconic types such as the Hurricane, Lancaster, Mosquito, Spitfire and the Meteor jet appeared.  With the return of peace over 20 major manufacturers faced inevitable contraction. The misguided Bristol Brabazon airliner was a dead end but the superb de Havilland Comet and Vickers Viscount led the field. Canberras, Hunters, Lightnings and the V-bombers met the Cold War confrontation.  For the first time here is a readable, highly illustrated, examination of the entire industry; its heritage and the changes it faces in the 21st century, both technical and political. The life and times of the 40 'big names' from Airbus to Westland: aircraft, designers, factories, failures and successes, mergers and closures are all explained, supported by statistical tables and copious illustrations. Here is a celebration of a world class industry that remains at the cutting edge of excellence.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991696404654,"sku":"9781910809426","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809426.jpg?v=1712871888"},{"product_id":"british-secret-projects-4","title":"British Secret Projects 4","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eBritish Secret Projects 4\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eBombers 1935-1950\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.27\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e240\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e300 photographs and artworks\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809341\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809341\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThis book completes the process of revising Tony Buttler's successful British Secret Projects titles, which have described the design and development of the UK's military aircraft since the mid-1930s. The original single volume has now been split into two separate titles; the already published British Secret Projects 3 Fighters 1935-1950 and this new book examining the design and development of the British bomber from roughly the introduction of monoplane designs through to the start of the jet era. This split has allowed space for the inclusion of much new information and many additional photographs. Concentrating on designs that were never built, the projects and programmes explored here start with designs that were prepared in the knowledge that war was approaching and go right through to the last generation of British piston-engined bombers that appeared after the war had ended. As well as the 'heavies', this book also includes medium and light bombers, torpedo bombers for the Navy and anti-submarine types including flying boats.  The book includes many three-view drawings plus numerous photographs of models or original artist's impressions to show how these unbuilt designs would have appeared, all ideal reference material for modellers in particular. The text includes full data available on the various types while additional appendices summarise the projects and their covering contracts and specifications\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991698206894,"sku":"9781910809341","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809341.jpg?v=1712871935"},{"product_id":"douglas-dc-3-and-c-47","title":"Douglas DC-3 and C-47","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eDouglas DC-3 and C-47\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003ein Latin American Military Service\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e320\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eAround 200 photos\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809471\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809471\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThe authors describe this book as a labour of love and who can blame them for there are few aviation enthusiasts who do not share their great affection and respect for one of the finest and long-lived aircraft ever to take to the skies, the DC-\/C-47.his book examines in detail one aspect of the aircraft's history which is not that well known, the fact that DC-3s and their military equivalents and derivatives have been in continuous service in that geographically diverse region of the world known as Latin America for more than 75 years, longer than anywhere else in the world.The DC-3 and C-47 came upon the scene at precisely the right moment in every nation. They were in use from the Rio Grande south all the way to Antarctica and from the remote Galapagos in the Pacific to the Antilles chain in the Caribbean.As always, they were used as workhorses and heavy-lifters, but a significant number, surprisingly, saw combat service in a number of most exotic circumstances, both as ad hoc bombers and combat aircraft. C-47s were not only the most numerous type in some national inventories, but often the most heavily utilised and valued.Richly illustrated, with tables describing the often extraordinary individual services lives of each-and-every known aircraft, this is a testament to the men and women who, for three-quarters of a century, have sweated, cursed and yet loved these magnificent aircraft.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991711019182,"sku":"9781910809471","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809471.jpg?v=1712872193"},{"product_id":"enemy-coast-ahead-uncensored","title":"Enemy Coast Ahead - Uncensored","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eEnemy Coast Ahead - Uncensored\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eThe Real Guy Gibson\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e6.25\" x 9.25\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e288\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eBlack and white photographs and illustrations throughout\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791182\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791182\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eFirst published in 1944, Enemy Coast Ahead combines Guy Gibson's RAF career, including the famous Dambuster raid which he himself led, with the inside story of life in RAF Bomber Command and is still a riveting read for the immediacy and vibrancy of its writing.And yet, what has not been widely known is that the published edition of Enemy Coast Ahead was carefully cut by wartime censors.Now, Gibson's original manuscript, which was archived for almost 75 years, has been be brought to light. This uncut edition provides not only previously unpublished details of Gibson's career, but also reveals his true view of the course of the war, of the wartime population, of his pilots and crews and of Bomber Command tactics.

After two years of testing, the aircraft, codename Flogger, entered service in 1969. From then on development of the Flogger proceeded along two parallel lines firstly as a fighter\/interceptor with a two-seat trainer variant and later as a fighter\/bomber which evolved into the MiG-27 used by the Soviet Air Force. This, in turn, was progressively improved as the MiG-27D\/MiG-27M and the MiG-27K. The MiG-23 family was widely exported. New aircraft were supplied to the Soviet Union's Warsaw Pact allies and selected nations in the Middle East, Africa and Asia. Later, second-hand machines were sold from CIS stocks to various parts of the world, which allowed the MiG-23 to remain active abroad longer than in Russia where single-engined combat jets had been phased out in 1997. The Flogger saw a good deal of action. Soviet MiG-23MLDs were actively used in the Afghan War; elsewhere, the fighter variants saw action in Syria (both in against Israel in the 1970s and in the Syrian Civil War), Libya, Iraq, Angola and Sudan. The fighter-bombers also fought in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Sri Lanka. This comprehensive book describes the development and service history of all variants of these aircraft, featuring fleet lists and numerous rare photos and colour profiles.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991714001070,"sku":"9781910809310","price":64.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809310.jpg?v=1712872255"},{"product_id":"forgotten-aerodromes-of-world-war-i","title":"Forgotten Aerodromes of World War I","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eForgotten Aerodromes of World War I\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e224\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791816\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791816\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eIn the build up to WWI, with flying it its infancy, Britain found itself with an immediate need for pilots, aircraft and airfields in order to make full use of the advantages which flying brought to their forces.By the end of the conflict, over 500 military sites, ranging from fully operational aerodromes, airship stations, seaplane stations, acceptance parks, kite balloon stations such as group and wing HQs.

In doing so, French aircraft manufacturers produced some of the most innovative, and indeed outlandish, bomber projects, proposals, designs and prototypes of the Cold War era. Many French bomber projects started life in response to proposals from the French armed forces. Others were originated by the industry itself, it was also not unusual for rejected fighter designs to be entered in bomber competitions, etc. Furthermore, if the State organisations were not convinced of the validity of the industry proposals, or if the military still could not find any use for the technology being proposed, or if the budget was cut, manufacturers might modify their proposals in an attempt to obtain alternative funding from America (Mutual Defense Assistance Act), Germany or NATO. The result was a huge variety of bomber aircraft designs. In some cases a machine rejected for one specific military role could be modified with new avionics, engine or armament and reappear, maybe to succeed in another role. As France became a nuclear power, so its requirement for nuclear strike aircraft (such as the Dassault Minerve V) grew, and many projects for advanced strike aircraft, including Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) designs, followed. Turbojet, ramjet and rocket propulsion and supersonic designs were all researched, sometimes taking advantage of captured German ‘wartime technology or using national pre-war research. Companion volume to the acclaimed ‘French Secret Projects 1’; period drawings, promotional art, photographs of prototype aircraft, mock-ups, wind tunnel and promotional models are all combined to present, in French Secret Projects 2, a comprehensive view of French military bomber and strike aircraft designs from the Liberation of France to the late twentieth-century.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991720620206,"sku":"9781910809068","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809068.jpg?v=1712872357"},{"product_id":"french-secret-projects-3","title":"French Secret Projects 3","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eFrench Secret Projects 3\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFrench and European Spaceplane Designs 1964-1994\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.27\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e312\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOver 500 photographs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809914\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809914\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eIn 1963, Eugen Sänger, became head of the Eurospace organisation which promoted the 'AeroSpace Transporter'. In response to a Eurospace call, aircraft makers in France, Germany and UK designed recoverable, winged spacecraft. From 1964 to 1970 the French government led studies to evaluate the feasibility of the concept.Those studies, under the leadership of the French Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES), coalesced into the Hermes spaceplane which was then adopted by the European Space Agency. In parallel, Germany and UK proposed fully recoverable designs while other countries, including Japan, India and Russia came to CNES to share ideas about spaceplane design. Unfortunately Hermes was never launched and by 1994 was abandoned after many alternative propositions were discussed.This book relates the story of these remarkable concepts, crossovers between aircraft and spacecraft beginning with the 'antipodal bomber' of 1944 and continuing to Aerospatiale STS-2000 project through the Transporteur Aero-Spatial, VERAS, AW Pyramid, Bumerang, Sänger II, HOTOL, Hermes, and Taranis. Non-European projects like Dyna-Soar, Hyperplane, HOPE, and MAKS are also be covered. It provides a fascinating and detailed account of these projects which, being half-way between aircraft and spacecraft, have hitherto often been therefore often neglected by aviation writers and historians\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255);

It examines the reality behind the claim that Britain was a nation prepared for the coming war. The images reproduced here are now in the archives of The Times and The Sunday Times.  The 1930s are put in context by referencing back to the end of the Great War and the Versailles Treaty. The book explores how Britain and, to a lesser extent, France were confronted with the next world war even as they struggled, in both material and psychological terms, to recover from the previous one.  Another theme is whether the press was complicit in the country's unpreparedness for what was to come. The Times under the editorship of Geoffrey Dawson, seemed in every sense, to be an organ of the establishment and Dawson was more than happy to temper the paper's coverage of Hitler's excesses so as not to undermine the appeasement policy of Neville Chamberlain and Dawson's close friend Edward Wood, ennobled as Lord Halifax, Britain's Foreign Secretary.  The photographs in If War Should Come present a fascinating glimpse of turbulent times. Striking and memorable images are accompanied by informative and insightful captions to give a different but utterly absorbing perspective on this fascinating era.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991724945582,"sku":"9781910809457","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809457.jpg?v=1712872471"},{"product_id":"miles-m52","title":"Miles M.52","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eMiles M.52\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eBritain's Top Secret Supersonic Research Aircraft\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809044\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809044\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eAs early as 1943 it became apparent that supersonic flight might be an achievable goal – but not for the propeller-driven aircraft of the day. Spurred on by secret intelligence of a German supersonic long-range bomber project, work began on a British secret research aircraft that would potentially be the first manned aircraft to break through the ‘sound barrier’. Although Miles Aircraft were best known for producing light aircraft and basic trainers, their design team quickly rose to the challenge with a range of ground breaking innovations in airframe design and construction, flying controls, advanced materials and pilot escape systems. The jet engine, designed by Frank Whittle, was also revolutionary, including an early form of ‘re-heat’ technology. By 1946 the project was about 90% complete with major technology and design features having been flight-tested on test-bed aircraft. Furthermore, on Government orders American personnel had been given complete access to the project, well before the Bell X-1 flew. What happened next has been mired in controversy, conspiracy theories and rumours to this day. Exhaustively researched and illustrated through-out with rare and previously unpublished photographs, drawings and technical data, ‘Miles M.52’ finally tells the definitive factual story of the Miles M.52 project, gives an objective account of the controversy that grew around the aircraft, and describes the M.52’s legacy to Britain’s later supersonic aircraft.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991733596334,"sku":"9781910809044","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809044.jpg?v=1712872741"},{"product_id":"military-aircraft-markings-2023","title":"Military Aircraft Markings 2023","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eMilitary Aircraft Markings 2023\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e4.72\" x 7.24\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e304\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e16 pages of color photographs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781800352704\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781800352704\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eFirst published in the 1970s, Military Aircraft Markings has become an indispensable annual publication for aircraft enthusiasts, historians and students of military aviation. At the heart of Military Aircraft Markings is the most complete listing of all the aircraft of the UK Armed Forces; the Royal Air Force, Royal Navy, Army and associated units. For each entry the military serial, aircraft type, unit\/operator and usual base are given.Further listings cover Ireland's military aircraft and historic aircraft in military markings. Other sections of Military Aircraft Markings include American military aircraft based in Europe, overseas military aircraft which may be seen in the UK, unit markings and a unit serial number\/letter de-code. In addition, the book provides a comprehensive listing of visiting aircraft from overseas air forces that may be seen during the air display season, together with a new full colour photo section.Also included are details of the UK's main military air bases, a maintenance of unit-cross reference and detailed RAF Squadron markings. This new 2023 edition of Military Aircraft Markings has been fully revised and updated by one of Britain's leading authorities on military aviation. This is the must-have companion for all those interested in UK military aviation.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991735824558,"sku":"9781800352704","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781800352704.jpg?v=1712872788"},{"product_id":"north-american-x-15","title":"North American X-15","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eNorth American X-15\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e368\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eApprox. 350 images\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809969\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809969\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eDeveloped in the mid-1950s by the US military and operated by NASA between 1959 and 1968, the X-15s were the first rocket-powered hypersonic research aircraft. They made 199 flights and reached speeds in excess of 4,000 mph and altitudes above 270,000 ft, considered to be beyond the atmosphere and into the vacuum of space.The book begins with a description of the X-series aircraft research programme started in the latter stages of the Second World War, successfully pushing through the sound barrier for the first time in 1947. The X-15 was a great leap forward from the early X-series research aircraft and brought forward many new technologies, pioneering the use of attitude control thrusters, telemetry for real-time data transmission from sensors on the airframe and examining the optimum ways to re-enter the atmosphere. The X-15 did much to explore this design and applications of winged vehicles as future spacecraft, introducing science and engineering to the problems associated with reusable space vehicles capable of putting down on land rather than water as ballistic capsules did. It partnered research into 'Lifting Bodies', optimally shaped airframes which were the precursors to the Space Shuttle.Three X-15s were built and one was lost following re-entry from high altitude but the other two continued flying. A second airframe was severely damaged but rebuilt for exploring flight close to Mach 7. Several famous pilots flew the X-15, including Neil Armstrong, commander of Apollo 11 and the first man to walk on the moon.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991738085550,"sku":"9781910809969","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809969.jpg?v=1712872864"},{"product_id":"paddy-finucane","title":"Paddy Finucane","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003ePaddy Finucane\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFighter Ace\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e6.1\" x 9.2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e176\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791809\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791809\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eFighter ace Paddy Finucane became a legend in his own lifetime and widely publicized in the press.Modest by nature he was upsetby the constant references to him as 'Bader's successor' but the spotlight never left him.Joining the RAF in 1938, Finucane made a poor start to his flying career and was not operational until the Battle of Britain when every pilot was needed. Posted to 65 Squadron for the Battle of Britain , he went on to become a flight commander with 452 Squadron, the first Australian squadron in Britain. His leadership qualities quickly became apparent and it was with them that he scored his most spectacular successes in the circus sweeps on the French coast.In January 1942 he became squadron commander of 602 Squadron and was promptly promoted to Wing Commander Flying, Hornchurch. Finucane established an outstanding reputation for tactics and flying skill having eventually destroyed 32 enemy aircraft before ditching in the Channel in July 1942 and disappearing.With the full co-operation of the Finucane family, the myth of a wild fighting Irishman can at last be eliminated to reveal a thoughtful, highly disciplined and respected individual, a man born to lead.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991740215470,"sku":"9780859791809","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791809.jpg?v=1712872920"},{"product_id":"raf-hendon","title":"RAF Hendon","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eRAF Hendon\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eThe Birthplace Of Aerial Power\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e7.8\" x 10.6\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e112\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780955426865\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780955426865\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eIf any one airfield in the world could claim to be the home of military aviation, RAF Hendon has to be the no.1 contender.The story starts over 150 years ago in August 1862, when one Henry Treacey Coxwell took a party on a balloon flight from the present-day Hendon site. In was not an auspicious start - suffering from light winds they only just reached a field near Mill Hill.Aviation returned to Hendon in 1910 in the form of British aviation pioneer Claude Grahame-White, who laid the foundations for the development of the Hendon site that was soon christened “The London Aerodrome”. Many famous aviation personalities (not least Geoffrey de Havilland) came to Hendon and the fledgling airfield hosted nine Air Displays in the years leading up to World War I, before being requisitioned for pilot training and the air defence of London. Aircraft were also manufactured here including Morane-Saulnier Type H monoplanes and the Royal Aircraft Factory BE.2c.Aircraft production and civilian flying training continued post-war until the airfield became an RAF station in 1927. As World War II unfolded, Hendon was a Fighter Command station: Hurricanes flew from Hendon at the height of the Battle of Britain and later in the war USAF units moved in as Hendon became home to transport and communications squadrons.With the return of peacetime, and despite the steady encroachment of urban London on the already cramped airfield site, flying continued at RAF Hendon, with the last aircraft using the site as late as 1968. Today, Hendon is best known as home of the RAF Museum, housed in part in the historic First World War hangars and widely regarded as one of the world’s premier aviation collections.RAF Hendon: The Birthplace of Aerial Power narrates the full story of this remarkable airfield through war and peace and provides a wealth of information for historians and aviation enthusiasts alike.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991752011950,"sku":"9780955426865","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780955426865.jpg?v=1712873055"},{"product_id":"scooter","title":"Scooter!","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eScooter!\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eThe Douglas A-4 Skyhawk Story\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e288\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOver 350 black and white and color photographs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809266\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809266\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eFew modern military aircraft can claim the longevity and success of the legendary Douglas A-4 Skyhawk. First flown in the mid - 1950s, the A-4 Skyhawk achieved combat fame in the Falklands and Vietnam wars and saw service with the air arms of seven foreign countries including Israel and New Zealand. It is still in use today in South America. The A-4, also known as the Bantam Bomber and Scooter, was a small, subsonic aircraft which was originated during the 1950s. The A-4 dramatically bucked the trend toward ever bigger, faster, and more complicated tactical jet airplanes in favour of simplicity and low cost. Although originally optimised for the delivery of a nuclear bomb, it proved to be far more versatile in service and as a consequence the A-4 enjoyed a 25-year production run and operation for many more years by not only the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps but in the service of the foreign air forces to whom it had been supplied. For several years the U.S Navy’s famed Blue Angels aerobatic team employed it for their air show demonstrations, a role for which it was ideally suited given its performance and maneuverability. Those same characteristics were utilised as a challenging adversary in the training of fighter pilots for air-to-air combat – A-4s flown by both the U.S Navy and the Israeli Air Force shot down faster Soviet-built fighters in combat operations.  This is a fully revised and updated edition of the definitive history of the A-4 written by one of the leading authorities on U.S. naval aviation.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991778521262,"sku":"9781910809266","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809266.jpg?v=1712873195"},{"product_id":"somme-1916","title":"Somme 1916","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eSomme 1916\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e184\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eApprox. 250 images\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781800352544\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781800352544\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThe Battle of the Somme has become a byword for sacrifice and senseless slaughter. It had a searing impact on the British mindset that still resonates over a century after it occurred. This largely stems from the events of 1 July 1916, the first day of the battle which cost the British Army over 19,000 dead and nearly another 40,000 wounded, captured and missing, the bloodiest day in the Army's history.Yet the battle continued for four and a half months and a century of research suggests a far more nuanced picture. Britain was not fighting alone and the French contribution, often overlooked, was clearly very significant. The Somme also saw the very first use of tanks in battle, at Flers-Courcelette on 15 September 1916, an event that changed the course of warfare forever.Moreover, there are now commentators who believe the Somme was a victory, albeit an expensive one. The Somme also had an immense social historical significance, due to both the way it impacted virtually every community in Britain and to the films which held audiences spellbound all over Europe.While a great deal has been written about the Somme, this book is much more than just a history of the battle. It focuses on the equipment and tactics used by both sides and the strategic objectives the battle was designed to achieve. Uniforms, logistics, weapons, all the components of the battleplan are discussed and described in detail in a creative and innovative manner. This new approach to one of the most significant battles in British military history will attract a great degree of interest from a wide range of readers.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991797526702,"sku":"9781800352544","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781800352544.jpg?v=1712873285"},{"product_id":"soviet-and-russian-ekranoplans","title":"Soviet and Russian Ekranoplans","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eSoviet and Russian Ekranoplans\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eNew Expanded Edition\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e392\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOver 500 photographs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809365\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809365\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eOne of the most interesting strands in aviation history has been the development of wing-in-ground effect (WIG) vehicles, or as they are more commonly known by their Russian name, ekranoplans. Beginning with a brief outline of the concept from the theory to viable technical solutions, the book gives a historical survey of the development of WIG research and construction in Russia. A large part of the book focuses on a type-by-type description of specific designs of ekranoplans developed in the Soviet Union and Russia in the course of half a century. Special emphasis is given to the activities of Rostislav Alekseyev, who has played an enormous role in the development of this new technology. Ekranoplans developed by several other major design bureaux, notably those led by Sukhoi, Bartini and Beriyev, are also considered. Economic and political transformations following the break-up of the Soviet Union led to the emergence of privately owned design bureaux and firms that are now pursuing the development of WIG craft in Russia, given the lack of interest on the part of the military and the state in this branch of transport technology. This new edition has been fully updated and highlights projects that are under development. Packed with photos, artworks and drawings, the book includes examples of similar technology being developed in countries outside of Russia, including the USA, Germany and China.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991799165102,"sku":"9781910809365","price":55.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809365.jpg?v=1712873294"},{"product_id":"spitire-a-test-pilots-story","title":"Spitire - A Test Pilots Story","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eSpitire - A Test Pilots Story\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e6.1\" x 9.2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e336\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809303\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809303\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThis is the story of an exceptional test pilot and RAF and Fleet Air Arm pilot, Jeffrey Quill, who took charge of some of the most important military aircraft of his time.Jeffrey Quill, was commissioned in the RAF in 1931. He joined Vickers Aviation in 1936, and rose to become Chief Test Pilot at Supermarine. Best Remembered for his work on the Spitfire, with which his name is inextricably linked, he played a major part in the testing of the prototype and the entire development of the aircraft. Starting with lively descriptions of the Royal Air Force in the mid 1930s, Jeffrey Quill moves on to cover his fascinating test flying experiences where he took charge of some of the most important military aircraft of that time. He flight-tested every variant of the immortal Spitfire, from its experimental, prototype stage in 1936 when he worked with its chief designer, R J Mitchell, to the end of its production in 1948.Using his first-hand experience of combat conditions fighting with 65 Squadron at the height of the Battle of Britain, Jeffrey Quill helped to turn this elegant flying machine into a deadly fighter aeroplane.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991806898350,"sku":"9781910809303","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809303.jpg?v=1712873337"},{"product_id":"stormbird","title":"Stormbird","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eStormbird\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e6.1\" x 9.3\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e272\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eover 75 B\u0026amp;W photos, 16pp color profiles\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809297\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809297\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eBomber pilots who become fighter pilots are rare, but Hermann Buchner was one. The author, a Luftwaffe NCO pilot and Knight’s Cross holder gives a riveting account of his training with the pre-war Austrian air force, instructing with the Luftwaffe then the terrifying ground attack operations on the Eastern Front trying to stop the Russian juggernaut. Despite being shot down twice, Buchner himself targeted Il 2s, Yak 9s and Boston bombers who fell victims to his eagle eye.Later tasked with opposing the Allied daylight bombing raids into the heart of Germany, Buchner labored to protect his homeland. Serving alongside many well-known aces and sometimes taking off from his home airfield while under Soviet shellfire, he paints a picture of a man surviving against incredible odds, who became one of the elite with JG7 and learnt that the important thing with the Me 262 was to land near a convenient foxhole.Illustrated with many photographs, mostly from the author’s personal collection together with color profiles of his aircraft and opponents, Stormbird presents a remarkable insight into the life of a Luftwaffe pilot in WWII.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991815254190,"sku":"9781910809297","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809297.jpg?v=1712873379"},{"product_id":"sukhoi-su-57","title":"Famous Russian Aircraft: Sukhoi Su-57","description":"            \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eFamous Russian Aircraft: Sukhoi Su-57\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFamous Russian Aircraft\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eRussian\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e400\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOver 500 photographs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809938\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809938\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eAs early as 1979, Soviet aircraft designers started work on a programme called I-90, a fighter for the 1990s. Two Soviet aircraft design bureaux took on the task, Mikoyan and Sukhoi. Work began in 1983 but with the dissolution of the Soviet Union the project stalledIn 2002 the Russian government kicked off a new programme under which Sukhoi began development of what was then known as PAK FA (Future Tactical Aviation Aircraft System). Known in house as the T-50, this aircraft strongly resembled the American F-22 Raptor in overall appearance. The first prototype took to the air on 29 January 2010 and in 2017 the fighter was allocated the service designation Su-57. In 2018 the aircraft had its combat debut when four of the prototypes were briefly deployed to Syria during the Russian campaign against the IS terror network in that country. Production was officially launched in May 2019, with the Russian Air Force having 70-plus on order.The book charts the development and trials history of the 1.44, Su-47 and Su-57, as well as other project versions that did not make it to the hardware stage.

Spearheading this were the test pilots who ventured into the unknown in British-built aircraft for their maiden flights. As well as those that became household names, Testing to the Limits also brings to the fore many ‘unknowns’ who risked everything to take a prototype into the skies. The culmination of a 20-year project, in two volumes Testing to the Limits charts the careers and endeavours of over 400 company test pilots. Inter-related biographies brim with types first flown, incidents and anecdotes, including first-hand quotes. It is the most comprehensive study on the subject ever produced. From Short biplanes of 1909, the book traverses the abundance of prototypes in the 1920s and 1930s, the advances of World War Two from Spitfire to Vampire, the post-war challenges of the ‘sound barrier’ and the pressures of the ‘Cold War’ to the supersonic Concorde, the Harrier ‘jump-jet’ and today’s fly-by-wire Typhoon. Designer-pilots, flight test observers, the Empire Test Pilots’ School, the relentless pace of production test, engine test-beds and the origins of the ejector seat, the service test institutions and a glimpse of the future - all aspects of these extraordinary flyers are examined. Chris Yeo, BAE Systems Typhoon test pilot, provides a foreword to this ground-breaking title which is lavishly illustrated with over 300 photos.

Testing to the Limits is not just a tribute to a band of elite aviators it is also a vibrant commentary on the failures and successes of the British aircraft industry\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991828983982,"sku":"9780859791854","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791854.jpg?v=1712873471"},{"product_id":"the-avro-vulcan","title":"The Avro Vulcan","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eThe Avro Vulcan\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e280\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eApprox. 300 photographs, drawings and color profiles\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809273\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809273\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eDesigned by a team led by Roy Chadwick, the man responsible for the legendary Lancaster, the Vulcan was created to carry Britain's nuclear deterrent in the 1950s and 60s. Avro's delta-winged colossus became the backbone of the V-Force until the very end of the 1960s when the deterrent role passed to the Navy's Polaris submarine fleet. The Vulcan remained in RAF service as a tactical low-level bomber armed with conventional and nuclear weapons, and was only retired following the introduction of the Panavia Tornado. This is both a comprehensive work of reference and an authoritative history. It covers the origins of the Vulcan and delta-winged flight, details of every major production variant, reproduces extracts from the Vulcan's original Aircrew Manual and has appendices on both squadron disposal and the fate of every Vulcan built. Also included is a wealth of information and anecdotes from former Vulcan air and ground crews, describing from first-hand experience what it was like to live with the mighty Vulcan. The narrative is complimented with many photographs, scale drawings and colour profiles making this book the definitive history of this superb aircraft and an essential addition to the libraries of aviation historians and modellers.

What began as a jet-powered replacement for the KC-97 to refuel Strategic Air Command’s growing B-47 and B-52 bomber fleet soon evolved into America’s first military heavy jet transport, an airborne command post platform capable of surviving and then commanding America’s nuclear war plan, a testbed that enabled scientists to study the Earth, send men to the Moon and understand the power of the atom.Other variants of the KC-135 included a reconnaissance airframe that monitors arms agreements, gathers intelligence to understand the intentions and capabilities of potential enemies and provides real-time intelligence in combat - beginning with the war in Southeast Asia and continuing to ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Southwest Asia. Today, tanker versions of the KC-135 remain in service with Chile, France, Singapore, Turkey, and the United States, while reconnaissance variants operate with Great Britain and the United States.This is a fully revised and expanded edition of the original bestselling ‘Aerofax’ book and includes operational histories of the 80+ unique types, as well as individual details for all 820 airplanes by serial number including first flight, delivery, changes in configuration, attrition, and retirement.

A practical anti-shipping raider, the Condor fought a virtually private war against surface vessels in line with policy of imposing a blockade to strangle Britain’s seaborne lifeline. Rapidly neutralised by allied escort carriers and merchant ships the Condor’s role switched to staving off the Sixth Army’s defeat at Stalingrad. Condor crews hauled supplies in appalling winter conditions – sub-zero temperatures and low visibility and routinely serviced and refulled aircraft under the guns of the Red Air Force.For the Germans, maritime patrol duty grew ever more costly in terms of men and machines and new ‘stand-off’ weapons were introduced to beat the defences. By 1944 they had been all but eclipsed in a combat role and the survivors reverted to the transport role for which they were originally designed.The FW200 Condor describes the development of the aircraft and its varied roles, missions and personnel including the fate of all aircraft built. Colour profiles and a wealth of photographs provide comprehensive information on this elegant aircraft.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991840551086,"sku":"9780859791311","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791311.jpg?v=1712873565"},{"product_id":"the-ideals-and-training-of-a-flying-officer","title":"The Ideals and Training of a Flying Officer","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eThe Ideals and Training of a Flying Officer\u003c\/h1\u003e            \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e5.7\" x 8.3\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e104\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8 pages of b\/w photos\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791304\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791304\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThe son of a Canadian lawyer, Roderick Ward Maclennan joined the Officer’s Training Corps connected with the University of Toronto in 1915. Enlisting in Kingston he crossed the Atlantic in 1916 with the Medical Service on work which was ‘congenial and necessary’. Commissioned to the Royal Flying Corps, he trained in Oxford on the BE 2b.Learning to fly was an adventure…‘We have to be at the sheds at 4.10pm. In front of them runs a strip of tarred road surface fifty feet wide. On this the machines stand while waiting to go up; it is called the “Tarmac”. We have a roll call at 4.15pm and then sit in the sun on the tarmac with our “funny hat” and goggles.’and learning the art of reconnaissance was pure joy..‘I get in my machine, put on my leather cap and tie a pencil on the end of a string to my belt. Then I fold my map so that the spot I have to cover is visible, and then secure my map to my left leg above the knee with one of my garters. I do the same with my notebook on my right knee, and after a final polish of my goggles I am ready… The machine is left in the care of the mechanics and I am off to the mess to eat a huge dinner, and then roll into bed, rather tired after two hours in the air.’Eventually posted to France with 60 Squadron, Maclennan was killed in a flying accident less than a week after his first patrol whilst flying the notorious SE 5.With a new concluding chapter and photographs, renowned author and historian Chris Goss places this life in context of both the overall war and his Squadron.Maclennan’s beautifully naïve writing vividly brings to life the spirit of the times when the world was opening up to these ‘gentlemen’ pilots, and reveals another aspect of the golden age of aviation and the glorious language of the times.Hidden in the archives of his Canadian University, these extracts from the letters of 2nd Lieutenant Maclennan, can finally be revealed in celebration of the 90th anniversary of the end of that Great War.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991841894574,"sku":"9780859791304","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791304.jpg?v=1712873577"},{"product_id":"the-junkers-ju-87-stuka","title":"The Junkers Ju 87 Stuka","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eThe Junkers Ju 87 Stuka\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eA Complete History\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e7.4\" x 9.7\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e432\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791564\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791564\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eA full history of the Ju.87 Stuka from its origins and development to accounts of active operations in Europe, the Mediterranean and North Africa.

In a production run that lasted from 1936 to 1956, Rolls Royce built over 160,000 Merlins in 50 different variants, and over 50,000 examples were built in the USA under the Packard name. The early versions of the Merlin produced around 1000 horsepower, but late version Merlins were rated at up to 2000hp and it was Merlin and Packard engines that powered some of the most famous aircraft ever flown, including the Hawker Hurricane, North American P-51 Mustang, the Avro Lancaster and the de Havilland Mosquito.The inside story of the most famous engine\/aircraft combination in history is told in The Merlin Engine Spitfires Handbook. Using original RAF 'Pilot's Notes' from the Crécy Publishing archive, this handbook reproduces the unabridged content, typography and illustration of those historic documents. Covering the Mk1 Spitfire, the Mk9 Spitfire and the Mk16 Spitfire, the reader can see the progression and development of the Spitfire - from the first pre-war version with its Merlin II engine, to the ultimate Spitfire\/Merlin combination the 1943 Spitfire 16 with its American-built Packard Merlin 266. The Merlin Engine Spitfires Handbook puts the reader into the cockpit of these iconic aircraft, seeing the very documents those Spitfire pilots had to hand as they flew and fought in possibly the best-known fighter aircraft of all time, a witness to the increasing power and capability of this supreme engine\/aircraft pairing.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991846056110,"sku":"9781910809716","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809716.jpg?v=1712873619"},{"product_id":"the-saturn-i-ib-rocket","title":"The Saturn I\/IB Rocket","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eThe Saturn I\/IB Rocket\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eNASA's First Apollo Launch Vehicle\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.02\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e384\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOver 300 photographs, drawings and illustrations\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781800350281\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781800350281\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eIn this eagerly anticipated book, renowned space historian and author David Baker turns his attention to the Saturn I and IB rockets. Although considered as merely a 'stepping stone' from the Mercury and Gemini programmes to the mighty Saturn V and the Apollo missions that put the first humans on the Moon, the Saturn I and IB rockets actually played a far more significant role in NASA's manned space effort.As the first American 'heavy lift' rocket , Wernher von Braun's Saturn I traced its lineage right back to his WWII V2 rocket, through Redstone to the Jupiter and Juno projects that lead to the Saturn vehicles. In describing this often-overlooked historical background, the story of the transition of the space programme from the US Army to the (then) newly-formed NASA, and the evolution from launching men and satellites on modified missiles, to flying purpose-built space rockets, is also uncovered.The first Saturn I flew in 1961 and it remained in service until 1975, flying the first manned Apollo mission, testing stages for the Moon flights and launching 'Skylab' astronauts amongst other accomplishments. Illustrated throughout with NASA technical drawings and photographs, many previously unpublished, this absorbing book also includes a description of each mission flown by the Saturn I and IB.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991851528366,"sku":"9781800350281","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781800350281.jpg?v=1712873676"},{"product_id":"tiger","title":"Tiger!","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eTiger!\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eThe De Havilland DH.82 Tiger Moth\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9780859791823\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9780859791823\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eAlongside the Spitfire and Lancaster, the DH82 Tiger Moth biplane is one of the few aircraft that even the non-enthusiast can identify at first glance. This recognition comes in part from the Tiger's amazing longevity - first flown in 1931, the Tiger Moth was still active in military service in the 1960s, when Royal Navy Tigers were flying on and off aircraft carriers. Easy to fly, but difficult to fly well, from the first the Tiger was a trainer but it has also been used as glider tug, crop sprayer, film 'stunt' plane and wing walker platform. In 1940 Tiger Moths were even fitted with anti-personnel bombs and the Tiger also flew on floats and from catapult launchers. With over 8000 built, the Tiger saw service with almost every British and Commonwealth air force, as well as being exported to air forces in South America, the Middle East and the Pacific. The Tiger also saw service in civilian flying clubs around the world and even today, at least 250 Tiger Moths remain airworthy.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991857524910,"sku":"9780859791823","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9780859791823.jpg?v=1712873733"},{"product_id":"tsr-2","title":"TSR 2","description":"      \u003ch1 id=\"product-title\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eTSR 2\u003c\/h1\u003e      \u003ch2 id=\"product-subtitle\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eBritain's Lost Cold War Strike Aircraft\u003c\/h2\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-details\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e8.5\" x 11.4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e184\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e200 ills\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eCrecy Publishing Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-barcode\" class=\"product-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-name\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 61, 61); font-weight: bold; padding-right: 10px\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-detail-text\" style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e9781910809136\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-sku\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eItem No. 9781910809136\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003cdiv id=\"product-description\" style=\"text-indent: 25px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0;\"\u003eThis is a welcome revised and enhanced second edition of this comprehensive, accurate and honest account of the fascinating TSR2 story, tracing the project's development from its origins in the 1950's. Aimed at aviation historians and those interested in the history of military technology, the book examines the TSR2 project in detail, eliminating the many myths and misconceptions that have surrounded the aircraft for decades. Although much has been written about the TSR2's history, a great deal of misinformation has been published on this subject which this book dismisses presenting the reader with a complete and realistic overview of the entire project. This book deals with the facts and not the emotion, speculation and fantasy which has plagued the subject for so long. It presents a detailed, factual and very readable account of the development and subsequent demise of TSR2 project. For this new edition an additional chapter concerning the F-111K, extracts from the TSR2 Crew Manual and other declassified technical TSR2 documentation, has been provided by Tony Buttler, the author of our respected British Secret Projects series who has researched this era of British military aviation for many years.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Crecy Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44991861883054,"sku":"9781910809136","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781910809136.jpg?v=1712873766"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/collections\/CRECY.jpg?v=1646435055","url":"https:\/\/rzm.com\/de\/collections\/crecy-publishing.oembed?page=4","provider":"RZM Imports Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
