It is particularly valuable to those responsible for the training of future airmen, for the experiments described in the text enable a first-hand knowledge to be obtained of the behaviour of aircraft in the air, and the phenomenon of flight generally. These experiments can be carried out with simple home-made apparatus and illustrate vividly such points as taking off, landing, manoeuvring, etc. There are no less than 87 figures apart from photographs to illustrate the text. 7s. <d. net.
