The Aeroplane Pictorial Review (No. 3)
Compiled and written by the staff of "The Aeroplane"
The many new and spectacular types of aircraft and missiles which made their appearance during 1958 lend outstanding interest to this third annual collection of photographs from The Aeroplane. Selected from the finest and most informative illustrations to have appeared in that journal during the year, they comprise a fascinating pictorial record of an eventful period of aeronautical progress throughout the world.
The aircraft illustrated cover a wide range of types and nationalities. The latest jet airliners of Great Britain and the United States, the newest fighters, bombers, troop-carriers and trainers of the world's air forces, V.T.O.L. aircraft, guided missiles, naval aircraft and helicopters in plenty, are all to be found strikingly portrayed in this pictorial review, together with photographs of people and events which have made the year's aviation news.
Containing over 250 illustrations, grouped in sections for ease of comparison and accompanied by descriptive captions, this is a book to be studied and enjoyed by everyone who is interested in aviation.
