Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. A real nice clean unmarked 248 page first edition hardcover with a very nice dust jacket. Has a 15 page black & white photo section. Before John Alcock and Arthur Whitten Brown's epic flight of June 1919 no such journey had been attempted and they could no…t know what to expect. Of course, it took all the guts and determination the two men could muster but there was something else. Alcock and Brown were true professionals. Both had thought very deeply about the challenges facing them and both were determined to leave nothing to chance. In the background was the £10,000 prize offered by Lord Northcliffe. See my scans for nice condition and more information. Size: 9 1/2 h x 6 1/4w. Book.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From as early as the beginning of the nineteenth century, Britain was at the forefront of powered flight. Across the country many places became centres of innovation and experimentation, as increasing numbers of daring men took to the skies. It was in 1799, at Brompton Hall, that Sir George…Cayley Bart put forward ideas which formed the basis of powered flight. Cayley is widely regarded as the father of aviation and his ancestral home the 'cradle' of British aviation. There were balloon flights at Hendon from 1862, although attempts at powered flights from the area later used as the famous airfield, do not seem to have been particularly successful. Despite this, Louis Bleriot established a flying school there in 1910. At Brooklands attempts were made to build and fly a powered aircraft in 1906 even before the banked racetrack was completed but these were unsuccessful. But on 8 June 1908, A.V. Roe made what is considered to be the first powered flight in Britain from there in reality a short hop in a machine of his own design and construction, enabling Brooklands to claim to be the birthplace of British aviation. These are just a few of the many places investigated by Bruce Hales-Dutton in this intriguing look at the early days of British aviation, which includes the first ever aircraft factory in Britain in the railway arches at Battersea; Larkhill on Salisbury Plain which became the British Army's first airfield, and Barking Creek where Frederick Handley Page established his first factory. AUTHOR: Newspaper and magazine journalist, government press officer and aviation industry public relations specialist, Bruce Hales-Dutton's professional career has encompassed all of these. He has worked for the government department responsible for the aviation industry, a major international airports group and a highly-respected supplier of air traffic control services as well as Britain's aviation industry regulator. During this time, he has written text for articles, news releases, brochures and leaflets, scripts for video programmes and speeches. He now concentrates on writing books and articles about his two great loves, aviation and motor racing. Bruce is a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society and a volunteer steward at Brooklands Museum. He was born in Kent and continues to live there. From as early as the beginning of the nineteenth century, Britain was at the forefront of powered flight. Across the country many places became centres of innovation and experimentation, as increasing numbers of daring men took to the skies. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

He was killed in a crash there in 1899, but Pilcher had plans for a powered aircraft which experts believe may well have enabled him to beat the Wright Brothers in becoming the first to make a fixed-wing powered flight.At Brooklands in Surrey attempts were made to build and fly a powered aircraft in 1906, even before the site's famous banked racetrack was completed, but these were unsuccessful.
