ABOUT
Wing Commander Maycock was one of the first two R.A.F. doctors to pass the full wartime pilot's training course and is now the first to tell the splendid story of aviation medicine. The early attempts to grapple with the problems of increasing heights and speeds are recalled and then followed by a most vivid account of the wartime work and the hair-raising experiments carried out at Farnborough.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, portrait on title page.
