ABOUT
The profiles of eight leading early test pilots.
The laws of aerodynamics and the quirks of an untried aircraft are as lethal as well-directed flak, and here 'Sandy' Powell recreates the trials, triumphs and disasters of eight test pilots, famous or yet unsung, but all of them his friends, whose flying biographies make up part of the history of Man's increasing prowess in the air.
