About This Item
Shrewsbury: Airlife Publishing Limited, 1987. 1st Edition. Hardback. Very Good/Very Good. Airlife Publishing Ltd, UK, 1987. Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good in clear plastic cover. 1st Edition. Sir Frank Whittle was a technical prodigy, whose foresight in the 1920's enabled him to visualise aircraft flying at speeds and heights hitherto undreamed of, powered by his totally new kind of engine: a gas turbine whose sole objective was to produced a jet of hot gas. Yet therein lay the seeds of years of bitter struggle, against self interested MInistry officials and , later, against unscrupulous industrialists.
