Part 2 of a photographic tribute to the most well known British Fighter of the past 50 years the work covers the later years of operations including the flying of this iconic fighter in civilian hands. Each image has been chosen to capture the very essence of what it was like to operate and maintain this charismatic aircraft.
No attempt has been made to cover individual aircraft histories or what lies beneath the skin as this has been covered adequately elsewhere -this is purely a photographic record of the highest quality.
Arguably Firestreak Books have brought together the finest collection of images of this iconic fighter in one single volume. Images have been chosen meticulously to show the Lightning flying at day or by night in all weathers – the role it was designed for. With demand sure to exceed supply an early reservation is recommended to avoid disappointment. Please contact Firestreak Books should you wish to order a specific number ie 56/2000 – please be advised many have already been pre ordered so a selection of numbers will avoid disappointment.
