Libro Prima edizione
Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. First Edition. This copy is in very good unmarked condition bound in tan cloth covered boards with blue titling to the spine. The head of the spine is torn and frayed and there is some creasing to some of the page edges. The unclipped dustwrapper has sme edge wear and a large area of loss to the back panel so best described as good condition, it has now been covered in clear, removable, archival, protective film. Ordinarily I would not list a book in this condition but the contents and subject of this book is both revealing and important to aviation history. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Major C. C. Turner was the first professional journalist to learn to fly, and he qualified for the Royal Aero Club Certificate in April 1911 (he is the holder of certificate number 70) Previously, in 1907-8, he had ballooning experience and took part in notable balloon voyages. In the 1914-18 first World War he was engaged chiefly in instructional duties. at one time in free ballooning and observation balloons, and at another in aeroplanes. He was a Lieutenant commander, R.N.V.R., attached Royal Naval Air Service, when the flying services were combined as the Royal Air Force, and in that service he held the rank of Major, the equivalent of Lieutenant Commander. Some time after the War new R.A.F. rank designations were introduced. This is the story of thirty six years of flying in some eighty types of aircraft. Ref JJJ 1.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 3rd Edition. This is a copy of the third edition 1923, printed and published by William Cate for Imperial Airways (the first appeared in 1920 for Handley Page). Original red lace bound buff yapp wraps with oval aircraft photo and Imperial Airways Ltd panel tipped on to the front within a highly ornate gilt frame with HP (Handley Page) monogram at the top. (36)pp including numerous b/w photos and adverts + 2 folding b/w maps. Covers very good with some creasing and marks, interiors near fine with maps neatly folded. Presumably Imperial and HP would have distributed this to clients and partners as a promotional tool or souvenir. The author, a pilot and keen balloonist, was air correspondent for the Telegraph. He describes the interior of the craft, the weather conditions and sensations of flying, and his impressions of famous landmarks and the unfolding views. The photos show the pilots, with several stunning aerial views of the route over London, Surrey, Kent, the Channel, Boulogne, Abbeville, Paris etc. One map (drawn by Geographia, London) shows the route from Croydon to Le Bourget. The other, part of an advert for Societe General de Paris, shows the location of its agencies across France, Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia. Among the other advertisers are Handley Page, BP, Palmer Tyres, FA Swaine Court Photographer, et al.
