Miles M-52, amazing innovation from a small company

I bought this book, it's a quite interesting piece about one odd but quite interesting aircraft project that could have been ten years ahead of its time, if it had been pushed trough developement. There are some sour grapes from the writers about the fact that they were not funded to continue development, right or not. It would have been a remarkable aircraft and I guess that the technichal problems would have been overcomed and that it could have revolusionzed airplane design for centuries, but it never happened.

Nice book anyway. Worth the money.
