This is the sixth edition of Aeroplane Collectors’ Archive and we now look towards British-built aircraft of the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm – it is intended that American types used by the FAA will be included in a later volume. As before, we do not give full details of every type which have been covered in many books, but only basic data for each type. Once again, we bring you some of the fi nest images from the war years, supplemented by other illustrations from our archives along with period cutaway drawings where these are available. The archive includes some 40,000 fi ve-inch glass-plate negatives and around 50,000 35mm strips taken by The Aeroplane and Flight photographers – a large proportion of the archive dating from 1909 to the 1960s was gifted from Flight to The Aeroplane.
