Negative Positive
Title: not too shabby...
Review: This book has lots of history, even about WWI & 20's-30's fighter aircraft. Unfortunately, the author is British so much of the history focuses on British and German aircraft, which most Americans (including myself) are probably unfamiliar with. The color photos are nice and overall technical content is enlightening. I do feel that the book would benefit from a chapter of technical material explaining things such as wing-loading and its importance and some light engine/propulsion theory as some terms are not explained effectively which makes the discussion hard to follow.Overall, it's a good read for someone interested in the history and development of fighter aircraft.
Is the review positive or negative?
