Book
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. Philip Trevor (illustrator). Reprint. Includes dust jacket. From the dust jacket, "Harald Penrose made his first flight in 1919 with Alan Cobham in an AVRO 504K. There followed a long and distinguised carrer in aviation mainly as a test pilot. During this period he flew many unusual types such as the tail-less Pterodactyl, the Whirlwind and the Wyvern. In latter years he has become recognised as one of the finest aviation writers in the [UK]. This book describes flights in 'Airymouse'--A diminutive single seater aeroplane of insignificant horsepower--which he bought in his retirement. He sets out to recapture earlier times in his life when he first experienced the pure enjoyment of flight. He brilliantly communicates his love of England, its landscape and history, and of the birds who share with him the freedom of the air. It is pure enjoyment for all with a love of flying--Harald Penrose at his inimitable best." 162 pages. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
