5.0 out of 5 stars Takes you back to the late 1930's with old comments a good read.
This is a modern copy of the WW2 original and as such it is not a tactile book but a smooth modern printed version, the content is of course mostly the original page layouts and does not detract from the content for the price it is superb. Interesting read. Very pleased.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great stocking filler for plane buffs
I bought this as a present for a Spitfire loving friend. I don't know what constitutes good content for Spitfire lovers but I had a leaf through it before wrapping and it seemed quite comprehensive with little cartoons and drawings to illustrate the articles. There were tips on dogfighting, flight procedures and more. It does transport you back to those heady scary days. My friend's wife reported that he was well pleased with the book and had his nose stuck in it through a large part of Christmas day. A great little gift for a Secret Santa money.
5.0 out of 5 stars Spitfire manual and comprehensive guide
Lots and lots of extra information in this book besides the Air Ministry guide to flying the Spitfire, leaflets, how to attack enemy aircraft, aircraft recognition, how to act as an RAF officer, bailing out, hints and tips, etc. A good buy.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good for a small gift
Smaller than i expected but my step-dad loved it so all good here 😁
5.0 out of 5 stars Handbook
I got this for a gift and already half way through the book I am going to look for other books in the series for the family member
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent little book
If this book had contained only the Spitfire pilot manual, it would have been disapointing. However, the Author had the excellent idea to add many extras that really makes it worth your money:- more than 40 pages of introduction by the Author.- extracts of a Pilot log book (from Johnnie Johnson, Britain's best fighter pilot).- examples of Pilot combat reports (still from J. Johnson).- 4 WW2 manuals:1. Forget-me-nots for fighters2. General notes on air gunnery and air fighting3. Bag the hun!4. Warplanes: card game for aircraft spotters.Overall, 274 pages of very good material for less than 6£.
5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant book for spitfire fans!
My dad loves this book! He's a big fan of war aircraft, especially the spitfire - this book is ideal because its the sort you can dip in and out of rather than reading cover to cover.
5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant
Amazing book that tells you all about the spitfire, from details of the plane to instruments inside the cockpit. This also tells you how to fly the plane from take off to landing, how to use the guns and to proper way to bail out!Packed with official documents and also stories from the pilots themselves, this will keep anyone who love planes entertained. Excellent
Great book
A historical book with lots of information. The book offers the point view and pratice of combat aviation during the Battle of Britain. It a good piece of history for those who are fan of the legendary Spitfire.
Great balls of Fire!
This is a collection of re-printed actual documents used to train pilots in WWII on the Spitfire aircraft. Along with the Haynes manual you're all set. It certainly gives a period reference to how pilots were trained using humour, cartoons and diagrams. I should know as my 92 year old Dad is an RCAF Spitfire pilot! It took a while to get the book but it was worth the wait.
Good gift
Got it for my nephew for His birthday. He loved it.
Pour mordus d'aviation et d'histoire
Ce livre contient plusieurs éléments. Une excellente introduction d'une quarantaine de pages sur l'histoire du spitfire et le rôle de l'aviation lors de la bataille d'Angleterre, ainsi que plusieurs fac simile: le manuel du pilote proprement dit, un "forget me nots" accompagnés de petites bandes dessinées destinés aux jeune recrues, des exercices pour les apprentis pilotes, le journal de mission d'un pilote (celui du célèbre"Johnnie" Johnson )... Une véritable immersion pour les amoureux d'aviation, ayant de solides connaissances techniques et historiques. A posséder absolument si vous en faites partie.
