Quarto, paperbound (stiff, stapled, full-color illustrated wrappers), 80 pp. Fair, with heavy wear to spine; interior clean & tight. Numerous illustrations. From Preface: In this book I have set out to trace the development of the model aeroplane. I hope particularly that the newcomers to aero-modelling will find both interest a…nd inspiration from the doings of others. There is a great deal one can learn from the "early ones." There is a saying that there is nothing new in this world. This is not quite true in the case of the aeroplane, but it is true that since the aerplane really got into its stride, improvement has been chiefly in the nature of development rather than radical change. Whilst writing this book, and recalling the data and ideas of some of the best model practice in the country during the history of the model aerplane, I have felt a great urge to design and construct, incorporating all sorts of exciting combinations of shape, wing loading, power and gadgets, and I feel that aeromodellers cannot but get the same stimulus when they find set before them all this thought that has gone into the production of famous and winning models by so many people It is not only from the latest models that one finds oneself wishing to borrow ideas -- many of the older ideas can be used, or modified and adapted.
