Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 224 pp, large 8vo (9 7/16" H). B&w plates. "In October 1999, Marshall of Cambridge celebrates its 90th Anniversary. One of Europe's foremost Aviation Companies, Marshall has been a leader in pilot training, aircraft design, conversions and repairs for decades. For example, it had trained 600 pilots by September 1939 - vitally increasing the pool for the Battle of Britain - and between '39 and '45 over 20,000 pilots, flying instructors and observers were trained at Marhsall FT Schools, and over 5,000 aircraft repaired or converted. Dennis Pasco, himself a former test pilot on the Hercules and TriStar, has written the history and compiled and edited the stories of these courageous men, some of whom like Peter May and Brian Wass died carrying out their duty. Here you will find excellent pen portraits by the pilots themselves, revealing fascinating insights and marvellous memories, and detailed specifications of a whole variety of aircraft through the Second World War, the Falklands War and beyond. The book, featuring many previously unpublished photos, will stand as a fitting tribute not only to the test pilots themselves but also to the thousands of current and former employees of the Company."
