Think of the First World War and then think of an aircraft. What springs to mind will probably be the Sopwith Camel. The single-seat Camel was one of the most successful RNAS/RFC/RAF ‘scouts’ (the period term for a fighter) of the First World War. Jarrod Cotter has been given rare access to Camel new-builds in France and New Zealand. The manual includes rare and stunning colour photography of rebuilding, restoring and flying this classic WW1 fighter.

Jarrod Cotter is a freelance aviation author and former editor of Aeroplane Monthly magazine. He is co-author of the Haynes Avro Lancaster Manual, author of the Haynes P-51 Mustang Manual and Bristol Blenheim Manuals. He lives in Lincolnshire.

* Fascinating insights into the design, construction and operation of the most successful British fighter aircraft of WW1. * Rare insights into the Shuttleworth Collection's Sopwith Camel restoration to flight. * Compelling interviews with Camel display pilots. * Interview with film director Peter Jackson about his Sopwith Camel in New Zealand. * Stunning air-to-air colour photography of restored/replica Camels.
