RAF Hendon  [9780955426865]

Hendon is a name that goes right to the beginnings of aviation in the UK and has a story to tell that encompasses the full story of flight, from early experiments with balloons in the mid-nineteenth century, right up until the end of the sixties when the last military aircraft used the site as an RAF base. Now, of course, it houses one the finest collections of military aircraft in the world, as the RAF museum, and this book is a fitting tribute to such a wealth of aviation heritage.
Over 140 historic photographs illustrate this fascinating story, leaving the reader in no doubt as to the true significance of Hendon as a name on the historical map of military flying.
