Publisher's Synopsis

Despite its almost 500 pages, Volume Two only comprises two chapters! That's what happens when you allow a great English character and expert free rein to explore a subject properly. Chapter 11 (the previous ten chapters were in the much smaller Volume One) is devoted to British Light Aviation 1946-1970 in detail… coming in at just over 200 pages; it sure is in detail. Chapter 12 on unfulfilled projects and designs is a mere 39 pages but includes things like the radical Essex Aero Sprite ahead of its time plane (with a name that suggested it was made from pure sugar) but never built. These might have been examined individually and accompanied by profile drawings and specifications. The book ends with two appendices.
