New Zealand is home to one of the world's most significant World War One aircraft collections. This is the result of the work of Sir Peter Jackson's The Vintage Aviator Ltd. The company restores originals and replicas and manufactures scratch-building reproductions of Great War aircraft from their Wellington and Wairarapa bases.

New Zealand's leading aviation photographer, Gavin Conroy, has spent many years photographing these aircraft, and these remarkable images form the heart of this book. With historical text by David McDonald detailing the rapid development of these aircraft between 1914 and 1918 and representing both sides of the conflict, there are also personal accounts from many of the pilots who have flown them.

Vintage Aviators is a fascinating insight into a pivotal period of aviation history. Anyone interested in the early days of flying or the Great War will want to own this book.
