FAIREY DELTA 2

Title: Fairey Delta 2

The Fairey Delta 2 was a supersonic research aircraft which first flew in 1954. It was the first aircraft to exceed 1,000 MPH and held the world air speed record for over a year in 1956/57. Only two examples were built. It formed the basis of a Fairey submission to the UK Air Ministry for an all-weather interceptor but this was won by the English Electric Lightning.

To maximise value, this title contains the Pilots Notes for both the Fairey Delta 2 and another British X-plane, the Shorts SC.1. The files have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages.
