From the dust jacket: "More than 240 photographs, many rare and here published for the first time, illustrate the first generation of British naval and military aircraft. Frail and technically primitive, these machines were the predecessors of the Sopwith Camels and SE.5s of the First World War, the Spitfires and Hurrianes of World War Two, and the Tornados of today. ~ This book is about the earliest of all the aircraft of that series: those of the Naval Wing to which 1-200 were allotted, and those of the Military Wing numbered from 201 to 400. In this unique and fascinating pictorial compilation, each illustration is accompanied by concise notes concerning the characteristics, origins, career and fate of the aircraft depicted.

Bruce, J. M. (John McIntosh) The Aeroplanes of the Royal Flying Corps (Military Wing)
London Putnam 1982 037030084X / 9780370300849 First Edition Hardcover Very Good in Very Good dust jacket
642 pages, very well illustrated, cloth, DJ, very good. 1st edition. From the dust jacket: "The RFC was formed less than 9 years after the first successful powered flight by an aeroplane, yet little more than 2 years after its foundation it was called upon to play a major role in the greatest conflict the world had experienced. Before the war ended the RFC and the Royal Naval Air Service were combined to form the Royal Air Foce. The RFC therefore existed for less than six years, but in that short time it had developed into a powerful fighting force. The Corps used a very wide-ranging assortment of aircraft, beginning with the most primitive and ending with highly developed high-performance weapons. This long-awaited and definitive book covers in great detail the aircraft which took part in the Military Trials held in August 1912 and every type of aircraft used by or designed for the RFC. Design, development and service histories are detailed and there is a comprehensive record of their military serials and the units with which they served. " ; 642 pages
