The author took on the onerous task of compiling
in-depth details of the 8000-odd aircraft that have seen service in the
South African Air Force between 1920 and 2005. He introduces them more or
less in the order which they were taken into service and has listed
serials, construction numbers, delivery dates and fates where known. In
addition he has 32 pages of colour side drawings for the modeller, plenty
of B & W photographs of each individual type and a Roll of Honour that
covers 56 pages, with details of rank, initials, surname, aircraft type
and serial, and squadron where known. For the first time he lists the
details of RAF air crew that lost their lives in South Africa during WW2
while they were here for training. It is A4 with 445 pages. Hard and Soft
cover copies were printed.
