M . M M B All the World's Aircraft JANE'S All the World's Aircraft for 1922 (12th edition)1, which is now obtainable, is, as in previous volumes, full oi interesting and very useful information regarding aircraft and all appertaining thereto. Considering the almost hopeless, nature of the task confronting one when trying to collect from various sources complete particulars of the world's aircraft, we are bound to admit that the information given in the book is remarkably complete and up to date. Several changes in the arrangement of the 1922 volume have been made, and whereas previous issues appeared towards the end of the year, this time it makes its appearance- much earlier. It is divided into four parts :—(A) The Progress of Aviation in the various Countries during the past Year; (B) The World's Aeroplanes ; (C) The Worki's. Engines; and (D) The World's Airships. In each section, the countries are arranged alphabetically. As before, it is edited and compiled by C. G. Grey, and is published by Sampson Low, Marston and Co., at £2 2s.
