The 'Dart was also the lightest-weight aircraft ever powered by a Pratt & Whitney J75 turbojet. This book provides an insightful and in-depth look at the sixth mem... [Read More]

Test Pilot
The renowned WWII RAF fighter pilot who went on to set an air speed record tells his story—now with an updated chapter and new photos. Joining the RAF at the beginning of the war, young Neville Duke became a fighter pilot with the crack 92 Squadron at RAF Biggin Hill in 1941. That spring and summer, he survived the air battles over Northern France with the Biggin Hill Wing, often flying as wingman to the legendary Adolph “Sailor” Malan, Fighter Command’s top-scoring pilot at that time. Duke quickly established himself as one of the most successful pilots in North Africa, bringing hi... [Read More]

Focke Wulf Jet Fighters
The biggest success of the Focke Wulf company during the Second World War was the choice of a radial engine for the Fw 190 fighter, in this way avoiding to compete against Messerschmitt for the in line engines.The decision of the Oberkommando der Luftwaffe to assign the few turbojets available to the Messerschmitt and Arado firms and the discovery of the terrible aerodynamic effect known as compressibility buffeting by mid-1942, made the life of fighter designers of the time very interesting. The Kurt Tank team proposed to install a centrifugal turbojet of his design in the nose of an Fw 190 A... [Read More]

Fighters over the Fleet: Naval Air Defence from Biplanes to the Cold War
Fighters Over the Fleet is an account of the parallel evolution of naval fighters for fleet air defense and the ships they sought to defend. This volume concentrates on the three main advocates of carrier warfare: the Royal Navy, the U.S. Navy, and the Imperial Japanese Navy.Because radar was not invented until the mid-1930s, fleet air defense was a primitive effort for flyers during the 1920s. Once the innovative system was developed and utilized, organized air defense became viable. Thus major naval-air battles of the Second World War--like Midway, the "Pedestal" convoy, the Philippine Sea a... [Read More]

Pegasus - The Heart of the Harrier: The History and Development of the World's First Operational Vertical Take-off and Landing Jet Engine
The conception of the Pegasus engine in 1957 upset all the conventions of aircraft design.

It then goes on to explain how the developments and improvements have been made over the ensuing years and includes ... [Read More]
