PRAISE FOR JAVELIN BOYS With insightful text and an interesting array of photos, Javelin Boys is highly recommended. It both entertains and informs, a tricky balance to strike, but one achieved with aplomb here. Aeroplane (Book of the Month - December 2017) A superb publication...the central presentation of a wide range of colour photos illuminates the whole book and indeed the story of the aircraft... An enthralling read that I thoroughly recommend. RAF Historical Society Journal This book has it all; the derring-do, professionalism and dedication of those that flew and serviced the difficult, but ultimately successful delta design. Airfix Model World Fascinating, funny and at times tragic anecdotes from former ground and aircrew personnel. Flypast
