fascinating account of the development of the airplane in the all-important years between 1913-1935. 31 classic aircraft are profiled here. Numerous three-view drawings with complete specs. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Classics of the air, even though an older book, has some great color plates for aero-modeling. I found the Italian SPAD 13 plates very helpful. They can be difficult to find.
