Reviews
All the objects that a Royal Flying Corps pilot or airman was issued with for sorties over the Western Front during the First World War are explored in this book in high-definition color photographs, detailing everything from the differing flying clothing, to headgear, personal weapons, gloves, goggles and early life preservers., With this book, Hillier has added to the historiography of World War I aviation by detailing the evolution of flight gear and uniforms and giving us a fine visual reference. It will please aviation historians as well as collectors and re-enactors and is highly recommended., If you want to know precisely what gear and clothing was issued to Royal Flying Corps pilots throughout the war, this book is an excellent source and a delightful read., This book is a rich -- and richly illustrated -- assemblage of authoritative text and color images of basic uniforms, coverings and a variety of other gear that fliers needed to perform their dangerous tasks.

Synopsis
The Royal Flying Corps was formed by Royal Warrant on 13 April 1912, and came into being a month later when the Air Battalion was absorbed into the Military Wing of the new Corps in May. In the days following the outbreak of war in 1914, the program for mobilization of the RFC was, in the main, successfully carried out. The first aircraft set out across the Channel on the morning of 13 August, taking off from Dover at 06.25 hours.The first pilot to land in France was Lieutenant H.D. Harvey-Kelly of No.2 Squadron. In due course, all four of the initial RFC squadrons deployed to the Western Front were ready for operations. They represented, noted the Official Historian of the RFC, the 'first organized national [air] force to fly to a war overseas'.As the Great War raged, the developments in military aviation were profound, not only in terms of aerial warfare but, as this book reveals, the uniforms and equipment the aircrew used. All the objects that a Royal Flying Corps pilot or airman was issued with for sorties over the Western Front during the First World War are explored in this book in high-definition color photographs, detailing everything from the differing flying clothing, to headgear, personal weapons, gloves, goggles and early life preservers. Each item is fully described, and its purpose and use explained.Fly with the Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2s and Sopwith Camels over the trenches and see what the RFC aircrew wore as they took on their German foe in what were the formative years of military aviation., A detailed and informative guide to the uniforms and equipment of Royal Flying Corps pilots and aircrew who operated over the trenches of the Western Front in the First World War. In exploring these objects, examining their design and use, the author draws on an extensive array of first-hand accounts and primary source material, much of which is held in the national archives. Supported by an unrivalled collection of contemporary wartime photographs and full colour illustrations, many of which have never been published before, this book includes images of original items of equipment that are held in both museums and private collections.

Seller is a liar. I won auction. Seller claimed items were broken or lost. Seller refunded money and then relisted items at later date because they wanted more money. Deceptive seller.
