Harrier
Ski-Jump To Victory edited by John Godden |

Description:
This
book recounts the personal experiences of several Royal
Navy and Royal Air Force personnel who took the Sea Harrier
and Harrier GR3 to war for the first time during the Falklands
War in the South Atlantic. It uses their own words to
tell of their experiences, their thoughts and feelings
about the conflict for the Falklands and how this aircraft
was vindicated during its greatest test. These personal
accounts are illustrated with over 100 photographs, many
of which had not been published before.
