Description
Explore the remnants of history on the British Isles' moors and mountains with this comprehensive guide to aircraft wrecks. The book features over 500 selected crash sites, with a focus on those accessible to the public, and includes accurate grid references, up-to-date descriptions, and recent photographs. The sites are arranged geographically, with each chapter covering a specific region, including the South-west Moors, Wales, the Peak District, and Scotland's Lowlands and Highlands. Each region is introduced with a narrative describing its geography and aviation background, while individual site entries provide precise location details, including details of the aircraft, those on board, and the circumstances of the loss.
