Classic Aircraft

Hardback

Author: Richard Havers

Published by: Haynes Group

Aircraft have revolutionized the way we live. Billions of passengers take to the air every year and around the world airlines operate almost 80,000 flights daily. Before the revolution, flying was, as often as not, a personal struggle in which a lone pilot and his single-engine aircraft tangled with the elements, the limits of his own endurance and the uncertainties of technology. Many of the endeavors of the early aviation pioneers ended in heroic failure.

Codename Valkyrie

order quantity

NZ$ 74.95 each

Hardback

Author: Helena Schrader

Published by: Haynes Group

On 20 July 1944 the last assassination attempt against Hitler failed. Leading conspirators behind the attempted coup and thousands of supporters and sympathisers were arrested and executed. First to fall to the vicious Nazi retribution was General Friedrich Olbricht, who had nurtured the plans over three years - codenamed Valkyrie. Olbricht was less glamorous than Stauffenberg, who laid the bomb in Hitler's bunker, but contributed far more to the overall resistance against Hitler. Helena Schrader traces Olbricht's transformation into an active conspirator dedicated to removing Hitler from power, showing how his plans might have succeeded had Stauffenberg not failed.

De Havilland Tiger Moth Manual

order quantity

NZ$ 67.95 each

Hardback

Author: Steve Slater

Published by: Haynes Group

The de Havilland Tiger Moth biplane is an iconic and instantly recognisable aircraft. It is also one of a handful of planes that attracts the widest possible recognition outside the specialist group. Of nearly 10,000 built, it is thought that more than 1,000 Tiger Moths still survive over six decades on, and over half remain airworthy. They are also affordable classic aircraft at GBP40-50,000 for an airworthy example. The authors take a close look at the construction of the Tiger Moth, acquiring and restoring an example, owning and flying one, and the engineer's view of keeping it all running and airworthy.

Flightpath to Murder

order quantity

NZ$ 74.95 each

Hardback

Author: Steve Darlow

Published by: Haynes Group

On 16 September 1944 an Allied fighter pilot was shot down near Arnhem, the day before Operation Market Garden. He was captured, beaten and then murdered. War Crimes investigators brought four Germans to trial. One was executed but others involved were never caught. The man who was executed had fired the fatal shot "under orders", but the man who gave the order has not been found-yet. This is the compelling story of ordinary family men who became cold-blooded killers, and of Tempest pilot Bill Maloney who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and lost his life to them.
