EPUB · 130 KB · Project Gutenberg #73566

A practical survey of how aircraft were built at the end of the First World War, written for the trade. Camm describes materials such as ash and spruce, spars and struts, wing construction and its fittings, interplane strut connections and fuselages, with many detailed drawings of the joints and fittings of the period.

Of real interest to aviation historians, as an early work by the engineer who went on to design the Hawker Hurricane. Download the free EPUB.
