The Quick and the Dead by William Arthur Waterton
ISBN: 9781908117274 PUBLISHER: Grub Street FORMAT: Hardback PAGES: 248 PUBLICATION DATE: 31.05.2012 DIMENSIONS: 210mmX135mmX33mm 408grams
DESCRIPTION: Written in 1956 but still relevant and throught-provoking today, this book is an absolute revelation on test flying with the British aircraft organisations and manufacturers in the 1950s. Written with refreshing frankness and truth - which allegedly finally cost him his job at the "Daily Express" - this account details what really went on behind the scenes in the defence world. Waterton pulls no punches in recounting the non-cooperation of civil servants in improving/altering recognised faults (often minor) when developing aircraft - to the cost of lives lost. This is an astonishing insight into the workings of the British aircraft industry.
