Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Chariots of Wrath is the story of one man's passion for all things mechanical - and in particular aircraft, which he fell in love with after his first flight in 1935 when his father took the family to see one of Sir Alan Cobham's legendary Flying Circus demonstrations at Dewsbury then in the West Ri…ding of Yorkshire. Here he was taken up in a 'giant airliner', aged nine years old - and he was hooked.Not long afterwards, the author started work as a young apprentice with the famous Blackburn Aircraft Company. From that day to the end of his working life - except for a brief career in the Leeds Police Force, Mounted Division, and his wartime duties as a tank driver - Sam Whitworth rose through the ranks of a number of celebrated aircraft companies to become a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautic Society.This book relates the story of the man and his family growing up in post-war Britain. There are marvellous stories of the aeroplanes with which Sam Whitworth has been so long associated.
