Hawker Siddeleys history can be traced back to 1912 and the formation of the Sopwith Aviation Company by Tom Sopwith which metamorphosed into Hawker Aircraft after World War One. In 1934-35, Gloster, Avro, Armstrong Siddeley, Armstrong Whitworth and others were taken over to create the Hawker Siddeley Group. The Group built some of the most important aircraft and missiles of the 1960s, 1970s and beyond; its best-known products included the Harrier, Buccaneer, Nimrod and Hawk warplanes, Sea Dart missile and HS748 airliner. Its collaborative projects included the European Airbus and various satellite programmes. Hawker Siddeley was subsumed into British Aerospace in 1977, but some of its products still remain in service to this day. This is their story. Illustrated with over 400 colour and black & white photographs, many of them previously unpublished.

The British Aircraft Corporation was formed from The Bristol Aeroplane Company, English Electric, Vickers-Armstrong and Hunting in 1960. In its short, seventeen-year, life, the British Aircraft Corporation built some of the most important aircraft and missiles of the 1960s, 1970s and beyond: its best-known products included the Jaguar and Tornado warplanes, Rapier missile and One-Eleven airliner. It was also responsible for the stillborn TSR2 strike aircraft, the 1965 cancellation of which remains controversial to this day. Most famously, the Anglo-French Concorde supersonic airliner came from the BAC stable. BAC was subsumed into British Aerospace (now BAE Systems) in 1977, but many of its products remain in service to this day. This book tells their complete story.

In August 1963, one of the best-selling aircraft of British civil aviation, the BAC One-Eleven, took to the skies for the first time. With an order book for sixty aircraft, more than half were from the United States, which was an unprecedented situation for a British civil aircraft. The first project for the newly formed British Aircraft Corporation, the One-Eleven was wholly designed and built by BAC, and remained in production throughout the entire seventeen-year history of the organisation, performing strongly even when profits were at a low. After flying commercially in Europe for the last time in March 2002, here the One-Eleven is celebrated in style.

GEOMETRÍA SAGRADA es un valioso tesoro que viene a demostrarnos cómo detrás del aparente desorden de la naturaleza se enmascaran estructuras y patrones de proporciones perfectas.Ello puede observarse en multitud de objetos que van desde los cristales microscopicos hasta la distribucion de los petalos de una flor.Muchos de estos codigos ocultos han sido identificados por observadores pertenecientes a distintas culturas, quienes los han atribuido a una evidencia de la mente de Dios y de su trabajo, lo que otorga a estos codigos una cualidad divina, que ha favorecido que estos conceptos geometricos se encuentren a menudo en los edificios sagrados y en el arte devoto de muchas sociedades de todo el mundo.Estelibro:Investiga las propiedades sagradas de los numeros, asi como las estructuras y patrones de proporciones perfectas que aquellos esconden.Revela los principios matematicos y geometricos que existen en la naturaleza, incluyendo estructuras botanicas, biologicas y geograficas.Examina la geometria de lugares sagrados, templos e iglesias, y la geometria en el arte del Renacimiento.
