Vickers-Armstrongs Wellington
Delve, Ken
Crowood Aviation Series
First Edition
The Vickers-Armstrongs Wellington was unique among British bombers in that it saw service throughout World War Two. Designed by the legendary Barnes Wallis, it formed the backbone of Bomber Command's onslaught against Germany in the early years of the war. Wellingtons could be seen all over the world, scouring the oceans for U-boats; and they performed an invaluable service in training, both in Operational Training Units and as flying classrooms.
Ken Delve traces the operational career of this remarkable aeroplane in this Crowood Aviation Series title. Illustrated with many rare and previously unpublished photographs, Vickers-Armstrongs Wellington is a fine tribute to a fine aeroplane and its gallant crews.
