This is a revision of the original 1934 edition and brings the reader up-to-date by the addition of photographs of the latest aircraft such as the Blackburn Skua, the Spitfire, and the Defiant. In essence it is a look of the RAF as it existed in the last years before the outbreak of World War 2. There are 16 illustrations and 11 maps. The original selling price was 7/6d.
