Description

Peter Amos

The long-awaited fourth volume of the Air-Britain’s history of Miles Aircraft is now available and follows on from Miles Aircraft – The Post-war Years.

This book starts with a brief summary of the events of 1947 and 1948 that lead up to the demise of Miles Aircraft Ltd.
It goes on to tell the story of what subsequently happened to the Miles brothers and how they recovered from their loss and carried on with their future accomplishments.

The book covers a plethora of projects as well as physical products such as the M.75 Aries, M.77 Sparrowjet, M.100 Student and the HDM.105 along with assistance given on the Wallis autogyro and the Beagle-Miles M.218.

There are also separate chapters on the SE.5a and Boxkite replicas made for film work.

Hardback, 240 pages, illustrated throughout with black and white and colour photographs, general arrangement drawings, period brochures and advertisements.
