Book Description

March 1997
This is the first comprehensive account of the design, development and operational history of the Harrier and its derivatives to date, incorporating many hours of interviews with those involved with the aircraft from the outset. Whether or not VTOL technology is advanced further to remain at the centre of aviation evolution, this history of the Harrier places on record the achievement to date of a truly unique aircraft.

5.0 out of 5 stars The definitive Harrier book, October 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Harrier Story (Hardcover)
I work on the Harrier at their birthplace of Dunsfold England, and can assure anyone who is interested in the Harrier that you will not find a finer book than this. It goes into depth and detail that i have never seen before. I have not found a single mistake in it's facts.

Go and buy it before it disappears all together. The publisher has informed me that the book is now officially out of print. So grab it whilst you can.

5.0 out of 5 stars the ultimate Harrier book, September 7, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Harrier Story (Hardcover)
I have read many books about the harrier, and this is the best. Covering the early history, its use by all the military services associated with it, the wars in which it fought,and future developement of the aircraft; this is the ultimate Harrier book. The book contains more facts and photos than are available from any other single source. A must for airplane afficionados. One downside- black and white photos only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvalous!, July 11, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Harrier Story (Hardcover)
I have a friend who fancies himself a plane buff. We have a bet... I say the Harrier's origins are in the British Kestrel. He insists there is no such animal... even though two British pilot told him so at an air show we attended today.

Could you, PLEASE, email him at... harveybc@mindspring.com with a cc: to me at... salscyn@ptd.net ASAP with an answer as to just who is right.

Thank you, Sal Latina
