COMMONWEALTH BOOMERANG

$9.95

Title: Commonwealth Boomerang

The Boomerang fighter aircraft was designed using as many components as were already available in Australia, to meet an urgent requirement for a modern combat aircraft. It used the basic wing, undercarriage and tail of the Wirraway, mated to a new fuselage and the Twin Wasp engine in use on the Beaufort. It was very manoeuvrable and was well liked by pilots, and approx. 250 were built.

This title includes the flight manual (titled Operating Instructions) and the maintenance manual (titled Overhaul and Repair Manual) for the Commonwealth Boomerang, along with the Aircraft Profile for the Boomerang. The files have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages.
