Hopefully though, aircraft which suffer such problems don't do what these cars do - breakdown whilest travelling along. A tad difficult to call the RACV or Holden Assist when you're a few thousand kays west of Honolulu...

... 'domestic edition'...and is complete with the printing errors on pages 330 & 352 which were corrected in later impressions. Published by George Allen & Unwin, and printed by William Clowes & Sons. The book, whilest sadly not in 'fine' condition, is still quite good for the year, no inscriptions, no tearing etc. If there is any interest, please feel free to check it out... ebay item ...
