This book is the eighth in the Midland Counties Military Air Arms series, which aim to present a current and recent organisation and equipment of various air arms, supported by a wide-ranging photographic coverage, base maps, unit insignia, etc. As always, data of a technical nature such as aircraft performance, dimensions and armament is deliberately kept to a minimum since this may easily be found in other reference works.
