AIRCRAFT OF THE 1920-1939 GOLDEN AGE
After the end of WW1 in late 1918, thousands of military aircraft, of
all types, were burned in huge bonfires or otherwise destroyed as
nations disarmed. All this led to very hard times for the aircraft
industry that had previously been developing and building aircraft at
a vast rate. But new types did trickle through
and the aircraft industry worldwide, did manage to hang on, mak
ing the most of what military and civil orders haphazardly came
along, until the worsening international political situation in the
ear y 1930s began to prompt moves to progressive re armament
and demands for more capable military aircraft of al types.
This volume of the AirArchive series concentrates on some of the
Most famous, glamorous aircraft of that Golden Age'.
