Responsibility details are not available.
This title is a specialist publication devoted to a single type of aircraft, the de Havilland Canada DHC-1 Chipmunk trainer. The author is Adrian M Balch and the book appears in the English-language Warpaint series. It is not a kit, a model or an accessory for a model; it is printed reference material that a modeler draws on when building, painting and choosing markings, and at the same time reading in its own right for anyone interested in postwar aviation.
The Chipmunk is a two-seat single-engine low-wing monoplane with tandem seating and fixed tailwheel landing gear. It was created in Canada in the second half of the 1940s as a successor to the Tiger Moth biplane in the basic trainer role. It is powered by an air-cooled inline engine of the de Havilland Gipsy Major family. Besides the Canadian production it was also built in Great Britain and under license in Portugal, and it served with a number of military users, above all as a basic training machine. After it was withdrawn from military service it moved into civil use on a large scale, for aerobatics, glider towing and private flying, so it has survived in many color schemes.
The extent, the page count and the exact make-up of this volume are not stated here.
It will be appreciated by a modeler building a Chipmunk in any scale who is looking for reliable pictorial references for markings and shades, by a collector of aviation literature focused on postwar trainers and by a reader who simply wants a good type monograph with no connection to a model. A knowledge of English is assumed.
