Description

Wyvern: From the Cockpit No 1 is the first in a new series by Ad Hoc Publications (who are responsible for the excellent Aeroguide series) looking at aircraft from the perspective of those who flew and maintained them. This is not a history of the Wyvern per se (although a short development and service summary is given), but a collection of essays from 13 men who flew or worked on the aircraft, about their experiences. The 68-page book is printed on glossy paper, with many well-printed photos (all black-and-white except the cover shot), and includes a two-page full color four-view drawing, with two additional pages of color profiles. All of the units that operated the Wyvern are covered in the text, with information given on commanding officers and deployments.
