Download or read book Cultures and caricatures of British imperial aviation written by Gordon Pirie and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new activity of trans-continental civil flying in the 1930s is a useful vantage point for viewing the extension of British imperial attitudes and practices. Cultures and caricatures of British imperial aviation examines the experiences of those (mostly men) who flew solo or with a companion (racing or for leisure), who were airline passengers (doing colonial administration, business or research), or who flew as civilian air and ground crews. For airborne elites, flying was a modern and often enviable way of managing, using and experiencing empire. On the ground, aviation was a device for asserting old empire: adventure and modernity were accompanied by supremacism. At the time, however, British civil imperial flying was presented romantically in books, magazines and exhibitions. Eighty years on, imperial flying is still remembered, reproduced and re-enacted in caricature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only the adventurous and the wealthy patronized the first companies to inaugurate air services to the continent in 1919. They flew in primitive converted military machines and could expect their flight or be interrupted by an unscheduled landing in a field when bad weather or an engine problem was encountered. The fledgeling airlines operated on the edge of bankruptcy because the government refused to offer finance. The French and German governments susidised their own airlines to provide themselves with a military reserve.

Download or read book Britain s Imperial Air Routes 1918 1939 written by Robin Higham and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-19 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This remarkable book pictures the growth of British civil air transport from its inception in 1910 through to the formation of Imperial Airways in 1934 and then the beginnings of British Overseas Airways Corporation. The author shows the impetus given to aircraft production by the First World War, and presents a careful account of the operational and financial fortunes of each of the four principal British airlines which began operations shortly thereafter. The fight against official apathy and lack of foresight on the part of the government, the campaign for subsidies and the struggle with foreign competition are interestingly presented. The development of the chosen-instrument concept in Great Britain is interestingly covered and the use of subsidies in this connection justified in order to place civil aviation on a firm financial base for the establishment of a great British airline to serve the Empire. The result was Imperial Airways, which soon found itself in the awkward position of being expected to be both a successful commercial company and the chosen instrument of imperial policy. The final emergence of British Overseas Airways was the result, and its organization marks the close of the period covered in this volume. Included in the book are comprehensive statistical appendices and a complete bibliography.
