{detailed description}For the first time ever a really comprehensive work is offered to the modeller enabling detailed replicas in miniature of all kinds of aircraft to be made to "exhibition" standards. The art and science of scale model aircraft construction demands only the most modest tools and the simplest of materials so that no high initial expenditure is required to make a start. With the aid of this book the complete tyro can be confident that his very first efforts will be highly rewarding of time and effort. The expert will find it a veritable mine of information gathered by the author over many years of practical experience. Every kind of aircraft is covered from historic types that laid the foundations of successful flight, through the perennially popular biplanes of the first World War, to more recent examples of the Battle of Britain, up to supersonic jets and civilian airliners. Nor are such interesting varieties as flying boats, seaplanes, and helicopters omitted. In the Foreword, Squadron Leader Neville Duke gives an informed opinion of the contents: readers will, we are sure, be swift to endorse his views.
