Product description

Among all the major French aircraft manufacturers, Marcel Bloch is one of the least well known, just like his planes. It is time to fill an important gap and present his productions, which marked the 1930s until the Second World War. How, by applying a policy of small steps, always relying on its previous experiences, good and bad, it became one of the largest aircraft manufacturers in the world. Always looking to the future, disdaining the past, becoming Marcel Dassault after the Liberation, he did not leave many traces of his first achievements, both successes and failures. To retrace its history, it was necessary to research numerous fragmentary sources and reconstruct the thread of events by cross-checking scattered scraps of information. This long work of careful reconstruction carried out over many years by the author finally allows us to reveal very little-known aircraft stories, even on its most prominent aircraft. The history of Marcel Bloch aircraft is complex, full of contradictions and twists and turns. If you think you know her well, you are wrong! Discover another vision of the history of aviation, at the dawn of the war, with its controversies, its attempts, its projects, its achievements, its failures, its catch-ups and its sometimes dazzling successes.

This first volume totals 512 pages, 1077 photos, 94 plans and drawings as well as 54 color profiles!
