Description
The Great War Display Team by Ernie Hoblyn In 1988, a team was formed that would go on to become one of Britain's premier display teams. Over the years, many talented pilots have flown for them, recreating historic aircraft such as the Fokker Dr1, Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.5s, and an Avro 504. Ernie Hoblyn, who built a replica Sopwith Triplane and flew it for over a decade, offers a unique insight into the construction of these aircraft and flying in the First World War. Hoblyn's experience is brought to life through a range of interesting photographs and unprecedented access to vintage flying machines. This book provides a fascinating look at what it takes to construct, pilot, and display a vintage flying machine. With its blend of history, aviation, and behind-the-scenes insights, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in the subject.
