BOEING B-29 Superfortress Manual 1942-60 Haynes Owners’ Workshop Manual
£7.99
An insight into the design, operation, maintenance and restoration of the USA’s giant long-range heavy bomber The Boeing B-29 Superfortress has carved its name in history as the bomber aircraft that dropped the world’s first ever atomic-bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. Flown mainly by the USAAF towards the end of WW2 and later during the Korean War, the four-engine B-29 was at the cutting edge of aeronautical design for its time, with pressurised crew accommodation, electronic fire-control system and remotely operated gun turrets.

Description
British publishing house Haynes is the world’s largest publisher of maintenance and repair manuals. The Haynes Owners Workshop Manuals have been published since the 1950s. They describe in detail and well illustrated technical interventions on cars and motorcycles.
In the same style Haynes is also publishing “manuals” about airplanes and spacecraft. These books are not intended to actually carry out repairs, but they do give a unique impression of the technology of the machines in question.
An aircraft is always described from the views of the owner, the pilot and the aircraft technician. Beautiful color photos and technical drawings show the construction in detail.
