This information black and while film examines aircraft development in Britain during the first half of the Twentieth Century between, between the late 1920s and the early 1950s.

It was actually a remarkable period, during which Britain advanced from the bi-plane to the supersonic jet, in a span of barely 25-30 years. Of course World War II played a massive role and impetus for the development of bigger and faster and more advanced aircraft, and Britain was every bit as innovative as the Americans or any other country for that matter when it came to aeronautical advances.
