4 Bowyer, Chaz. Paintings by Michael Turner. Foreword by Raymond Baxter. ROYAL AIR FORCE: THE AIRCRAFT IN SERVICE SINCE 1918.
Hamlyn, London, 1981. 
208 pp, 4to (11 1/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0600349330 Profusely illustrated with Michael Turner's superb colour paintings and b&w drawings. "The aircraft used by the RAF since its foundation in 1918 have been as varied in their popu larity as in their design and function. Some planes have been regarded as deathtraps by their crews; others could sustain incredible damage and still return safely home. Each new design soon developed its own personality, and might be loved or ha t ed; indeed, some of the best inspired such affection that societies have been formed to keep their memory alive. Many of these planes no longer exist, and many more were never photographed in colour; but through the paintings of Michael Turner th e reader can see them as they appeared in their heyday. (This book) combines these paintings with a large number of comments and assessments by the men who actually flew the planes, to give the reader a highly personal impression of what they were ac tually like to fly...." Small dint at bottom edge of rear board, light old tape residue at top/bottom of free endpapers. Minor edge wrinkling, two 2" creases at bottom edge of front panel, minor rubbing. Very Good/Very Good
