Abstract:
  • Scottish Aviation Pioneers chronicles the development, production and military and civil use of Scottish Aviation's Pioneer and Twin Pioneer aircraft. Best known for their impressive short take-off and landing capabilities and their docile handling qualities which enabled them to operate in some of the most challenging locations throughout the world, including in military operations in the Far East, the Middle East and Africa. As with other Air-Britain publications, after describing the design, development and production of the aircraft types, the book lists the histories of each aircraft and how each civil and military operator used the aircraft.
