About this product
Product Information
The twin-engine Vickers Wellington was one of the outstanding RAF bomber aircraft of the Second World War, as well as a capable maritime patrol aircraft and submarine hunter with Coastal Command. Centrepiece of this manual is Wellington Mk Ia, N2980, 'R' for Robert, one of only two surviving examples of the Wellington in the world and restored to display condition at the Brooklands Museum, Weybridge, Surrey. Iain Murray gives a fascinating insight into operating, flying and maintaining Barnes Wallis's geodetic wonder with the help of many rarely seen photographs and technical illustrations.Product Identifiers

Read it twice, and use a magnifying glass.
I was always interested to know more about the unique construction of this aircraft, thus snapped the book.. The book has to be read twice - the first time you get an overview, and learn late on why the aircraft shown was so rusty (it was a 1940 wreck salvaged from Loch Ness). The second time you read in details, and use a magnifying glass to browse the hi-res but small-ish photos. I am scandalised that only one Wellington was conserved for posterity. And even this one was a salvaged wreck.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
