Download or read book Airborne written by Neil Williams and published by Crecy Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to his reputation for being able to handle the rarest, oldest and most difficult airplanes, Neil Williams was called on to fly some of the most famous and demanding aircraft ever built; from Spitfire, Mosquito, Lancaster, Sea Fury, Yak, Harvard and Heinkel. Neil Williams' experience in these aircraft varied from the exhilaration of a Spitfire first solo; the loneliness of being lost at night over the Indian Ocean; the catastrophic experience of crashing an aircraft in front of 80,000 air show spectators and, most remarkably of all, his amazing crash landing following an in-flight structural failure - a feat which has entered aviation legend and for which he was awarded the Queen's Commendation for Valuable Service in the Air. This is a book to inspire, a book that captures the true essence, adventure and romance of flight.

Download or read book Tedder written by Vincent Orange and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Tedder became one of the most eminent figures of the Second World War: first as head of Anglo-American air forces in the Middle East, the Mediterranean and North Africa; then as Deputy Supreme Commander to General Eisenhower for the Allied campaign that began in Normandy and ended in Berlin. During those anxious, exhilarating years, he was, as The Times of London wrote, 'the most unstuffy of great commanders, who could be found sitting cross-legged, jacketless, pipe smoldering, answering questions on a desert airstrip.' After the war, promoted to five-star rank and elevated to the peerage as Lord Tedder, he was made Chief of the Air Staff, holding this appointment for longer than anyone since his time: four critical years (from 1946 to 1949) that saw the tragic start of the Cold War and the inspiring achievement of the Berlin Airlift. In 1950, he became Britain's NATO representative in Washington: a year that saw the start of a hot war in Korea that threatened to spread around the globe. This book provides the first comprehensive account of a great commander's public career and uses hundreds of family letters to portray a private life, both joyful and tragic.

Download or read book Combustion written by Maximilian Lackner and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-07-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combustion, the process of burning, is defined as a chemical reaction between a combustible reactant (the fuel) and an oxidizing agent (such as air) in order to produce heat and in most cases light while new chemical species (e.g., flue gas components) are formed. This book covers a gap on the market by providing a concise introduction to combustion. Most of the other books currently available are targeted towards the experienced users and contain too many details and/or contain knowledge at a fairly high level. This book provides a brief and clear overview of the combustion basics, suitable for beginners and then focuses on practical aspects, rather than theory, illustrated by a number of industrial applications as examples. The content is aimed to provide a general understanding of the various concepts, techniques and equipment for students at all level as well as practitioners with little or no prior experience in the field. The authors are all international experts in the field of combustion technology and adopt here a clear didactic style with many practical examples to cover the most common solid, liquid and gaseous fuels. The associated environmental impacts are also discussed so that readers can develop an understanding of the major issues and the options available for more sustainable combustion processes.
