Title: Avro 685 York

Development of the Avro York began in 1941 by marrying the wings, tail and undercarriage of the Lancaster with a new “squared-off” fuselage. First flown in 1942, 258 examples were produced between 1942 and 1946. One aircraft became a flying conference room for Winston Churchill. Post-war the type was responsible for nearly half of Britain’s contribution to the Berlin airlift.

This title includes the civil and military flight manuals for the Avro York, along with the aircraft profile for the type, has been scanned from the original flight manuals and retains any colour pages.
