The Aviation Historian Magazine Issue 3 Zurück Ausgabe

Climb aboard with The Aviation Historian and join the fast-growing readership of this fresh and original new quarterly journal. In Issue No 3 find out what happened when a nuclear-armed American jet rolled backwards off the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank three miles to the bottom of the Philippine Sea; what it felt like to be on the receiving end of a bouncing bomb in WW2; and what the well-dressed man wears in space. Read about how the Soviets used captured German technology to ignite their post-war jet-engine programme; how feeder airlines created a transport web across the USA; what lay behind the development of the S.E.5 fighter of WW1; and how the CIA’s secret airline Air America melted into the shadows as the Vietnam War came to a close. All these stories and many more are illustrated with high-quality archive photographs and bespoke artwork.
