1996rif. 159424Shresbury: Airlife Publishing 1996. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. The dust jacket is a little edge worn. This work describes every Slingsby sailplane and glider from the British Falcon of 1931 to the last motorless aircraft produced - the Vega. Each type is illustrated with a full-page three-view drawing with photographs and text outlining the background to the design. The drawings are based on the original workshop plans. Slingsby was for 40 years the main and for most of the time only producer of gliders and sailplanes in Britain. The company was one of the first to use glass-fibre reinforced plastics in production aircraft as early as 1953 and carbon-fibre composite materials for main structural members.

rif. 476443Pen & Sword Aviation. Hardcover. Very Good. - Howard Hughes' life ambition was to make a significant contribution to the field of aviation development. But the monumental folly of his endeavours on the H-KI Hercules meant that he came to be known and remembered to a great extent for all the wrong reasons. The 'Spruce Goose' a name Hughes detested became a product of his wild fixation on perfection and scale. Once completed it was the largest flying machine ever built. Its wingspan of 320 feet remains the largest in history. Yet it only completed one flight; flying for a mile on its maiden voyage above Long Beach Harbour before being consigned to the history books as a failure. - - Experienced author Graham M. Simons turns his attention to the production process that saw this colossus take shape. In words and images all aspects of this process are illustrated. We have shots taken during the initial design period images of the craft under construction and photographs taken at the test flights. In addition Simons has been gifted access to the highly prized and rarely seen aircraft manual produced for the aircraft content from which has been extracted and used to supplement the narrative. - - The book goes on to explore the political issues that sprung up as a result of Hughes' endeavours looking into the Senate War Investigations Committee's findings which explored the extent to which government funds had been utilised in the development and construction of the airship adding a whole new layer of controversy to the proceedings. - Copyright © Pen & Sword Aviation Pen & Sword Aviation hardcover

Henry C SSimons spent almost his entire career at the University of Chicago. A student of Frank H. Knight he was a foundational figure in the development of the Chicago School of economics. He is best known for A Positive Program for Laissez Faire 1934. "In Economic Policy for a Free Society Simons claimed that all it takes to precipitate a massive liquidation of securities is "a relatively small decline of security values" Simons 1948. Simons is emphatic in pointing out that corporations that traded on a "shoestring of equity and under a mass of current liabilities" are "placing their working capital precariously on call" and hence at risk in the event of the slightest financial disturbance Simons 1948. This is precisely the chain of events predicted by Simons in the event of a large-scale liquidation of inflated securities such as mortgage loans in 2008 'sub-prime crash.'."New World Encyclopedia.
