Test Pilots of the Jet Age

Men Who Heralded a New Era in Aviation

Beschreibung

Today, as we board our flights to Adelaide, Zurich, and all points in between, we give little thought to the jet power that will take us there. But, this is only possible because just over 70 years ago a select band of British test pilots was prepared to risk all in the quest to fly further, faster and higher than ever before.
