The Aviation Historian Magazine  |  Issue 5
Opening the throttles for our second year of publication, our fifth quarterly issue takes off with a major feature about a novice pilot — with just 40hr of solo time logged — who in 1930 set out to fly his newly-acquired Moth from England to Australia. What happened to him? Read the full story in TAH! Much closer to modern times, we reveal newly-declassified information about the USA’s plan to lend an aircraft carrier to Britain during the Falklands War in 1982; and, from the late 1950s, the heart-stopping story of how an RAF Avro Vulcan V-bomber narrowly missed disaster in New Zealand. Looking at a familiar subject from an unusual angle, we chart the post-war racing career of Hawker Hurricane “The Last of The Many”; and for lovers of the unusual we examine the Douglas O-38’s military career in Peru, Piaggio P.166 operations around the diamond mines of Sierra Leone, and a 1940s Italian lightplane which is so obscure that it never appeared in “Jane’s All The World’s Aircraft”. All these stories, and many more, are illustrated with high-quality archive photographs and bespoke artwork.
