'The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight' showcases classic aircraft of the Second World War, including an Avro Lancaster, seven Supermarine Spitfires, two Hawker Hurricanes, a Douglas Dakota and two de Havilland Chipmunks. To mark the 50th anniversary of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight's formation, Richard Winslade presents a detailed study of one of the world's most important airworthy historic aircraft collections.
This superbly illustrated book uses Richard's own original high quality colour photography -- much of it air-to-air -- together with carefully researched and well-informed extended captions. The author examines restoration processes and the constant engineering work necessary to keeping these aircraft in fully operational order.
