Fairey
Aircraft Since 1915 (Putnam Aviation Series)
by H. A. Taylor
Book Description: From the very early days Fairey was one of
the great names in British aviation, and although its successors no longer
build aircraft, the name continues in other aeronautical spheres. During
the long period form the 191418 war until well after the Second World War,
Fairey's name was always associated with British naval aircraft--there
was the long series of Fairey IIIs which served the Royal Naval Air Service
and the Fleet Air Arm and which in its final form saw widespread service
with
the RAF before being developed into the Gordon and the Seal.
One of the best-remembered and best-loved aeroplanes was the Swordfish--a
multipurpose biplane which outlived its intended successor, the Albacore.
Fulmars, Firefly monoplanes and Barracudas all played a wartime role. The
final Fairey naval aeroplane was the Ganneta unique twin-engined aeroplane
having the layout and appearance of a single-engined type. All these types,
and many others, are fully described and illustrated by photographs and
three-view drawings, and there is a complete listing of aircraft by constructor's
numbers.
H A Taylor worked for the Fairey group and brings personal knowledge
of some of its activities and individuals to bear in the writing of this
book.

Pioneer Aircraft: Putnam's History of Aircraft
by Philip Jarrett
This volume covers aviation from its earliest beginnings up to the
outbreak of the First World War. It begins with the first theories and
experiments in flight, including the attempts to fly by jumping from towers
and the experiences of the lighter-than-air flight using balloons. It then
analyses the experiments with kites and models in an attempt to understand
the principles of aerodynamics. All this leads up to the first successful
powered flights, culminating in the achievement of the Wright Brothers,
whose flight at Kitty Hawk represented the first successful powered, sustained,
and controlled flight. The remainder of the book covers the creation of
an aeroplane industry – putting aeroplanes to work, refining airframes
and engines, adapting aeroplanes to fly from water, and understanding safety
issues.
The Series Editor Philip Jarrett, is a freelance author, editor and
consultant specializing in aviation. He has been editor of Aeroplane, the
Royal Aeronautical Society’s newspaper, assistant editor of Aeroplane Monthly,
and production editor of Flight International.
