A propos de cet article

The Short brothers were the first aircraft manufacturers in the world. They became aircraft suppliers to the Royal Navy and their notable progress with deck-launching, folding wings, and the first successful torpedo-carrying seaplane led to enormous production of the Short Type 184 during WWI. In the following years they produced many bi-planes and seaplanes, then pioneered stressed-skin duralamin construction for commercial planes including their famous Calcutta, EmpireBoat and military Sunderland. They continued development of many more fine aircraft. Fine copy with bumping on bottom spine and fair DJ with tears on top of front cover and bumping on spine.
