ABOUT
From the brilliantly strange to the strangely brilliant, this collection of flying machines represents some of the most unusual and unconventional vehicles ever to take to the air.
Taylor highlights aircraft that defy traditional aeronautical design—everything from annular wing experiments and lifting body prototypes to giant wartime oddities, tiny personal flyers, and radical VTOL concepts.
Each entry showcases how engineers and inventors pushed the boundaries of physics, materials, and propulsion in pursuit of new possibilities in flight.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images and drawings.
