    A fascinating book at a bargain price.

    Although published in 1994 (so it's now rather out of date) this book nevertheless is a fascinating insight into the organisation and operation of the Royal Air Force, from its history to its uniforms, its administration to its aircraft types, squadron badges to medals, indeed the entire gamut of the RAF. My copy of this (heavy!) book was secondhand, but an absolute bargain at only £2.45!
