Lightning from the Cockpit: Flying the Supesonic Legend

Více o knize

The English Electric Lightning, a unique single-seat supersonic interceptor fighter, was designed and manufactured in the UK, serving the RAF during the 1960s and 1970s. Renowned for its impressive speed exceeding Mach 2 and remarkable climb rate, it established a strong reputation. However, its operational history was marred by reliability issues, resulting in the loss of over fifty aircraft during its service.
