Description
Uniform with Volume 1, a British civil aircraft used for civil purposes uniformly with the products of manufacturers. Volume 1, a British civil power must have been issued with a Certificate of Airworthiness issued by the British Aviation or its predecessors such as the air-powered aerodyne. Balloons, to preserve historical form and accuracy, have been referred to by the names under which they were built and within each manufacturer's individual designation. This, with few exceptions, was the name they went into service.
The small size of Appendices achieves bibliographic completeness accurately, although there is a correspondingly high degree of incompleteness in the measure of disagreement. Much important reference is astonishingly incomplete, as many records have been lost, and documentation shows that many manufacturers produced relatively few elderly types. TheSpecimenIndex requires years of careful study and selection, and many have been rigidly researched.
Leigh-on-Sea, February 1960
Frontispiece: The important contribution to British civil aviation made by converted military aircraft is typified by one of the Handley Page Harrow tankers of Flight Refuelling Ltd., ministering to the Short S.30 'Cabot' on its proving flight to New York, June 1, 1939.
