Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. This copy is in as new, unmarked condition bound in blue cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. The unclipped dust wrapper is in as new condition. International postal rates are calculated…on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. A personal account of air operations during the First World War, mainly on the Western Front. Against this background of technical development and innovation, the author recounts the exploits of the Royal Flying Corps airmen and of the French, German, Italian and American air forces. Richard Townshend Bickers was a fighter pilot flying Hurricanes and Typhoons in World War Two. His insight into the pilots and aircrew of WW1 are therefore more readily understood. This book is a well thought out account of how dangerous war flying was in the pioneer years of 1914 to 1918. As Richard tells the story, you realise the peril of flying in a fragile wood and canvas aeroplane, barely faster than the higher performance racing cars of the era, with no crash protection, no protection from fire, should the petrol tanks be hit and no parachute should a wing tear off or you were set on fire. Ref AAA 4.
