Books about Indian aviation are scarce, and therefore all the more appreciated when they do appear. This book is a comprehensive history of the Sea Hawk fighter in Indian Naval Aviation Service. Authored by Vice Admiral Vinod Pasricha (retd), the book covers all aspects of the aircraft’s history, including individual airframe service histories. The book is is the outcome of the research of VAdm Vinod Pasricha since 1978. He spent years sifting through records, photo albums of the squadron, the archives of NHQ, collecting valuable inputs and then putting them in order. He has made efforts to verify the data and only then included it in the book. As a result the contents of this book are a treasure for enthusiasts, as well as general readers. Here are some salient features : Photographs included : 246 Maps/Diagrams/Sketches : 47 Tables giving important data about Seahawks (Not only Indian Navy Seahawks, but of all the navies which flew them) : 37 No of articles/inputs compiled from other Naviators : 57 No of interesting snippets to elaborate the contents including some humorous ones : 65 An Appendix giving exhaustive data about Indian Navy Seahawks. An Appendix explaining important naval/special terms and abbreviations. Here’s the official product info from the rear cover: ‘Downwind, Four Green’, an R/T call synonymous with aircraft carriers, covers the broad history of the Seahawks. These aircraft operated from the decks of three Navies – the British, the Dutch and the Indian – and flew from shore bases in Germany. The Seahawks saw action during the Suez Crisis in 1956 and in Bangladesh in 1971. After first deck landing on HMS Illustrious in April 1949, the Seahawk continued flying for 30 years in four navies – a feat not many naval fighter aircraft can claim. The Seahawks were inducted into the Indian Navy in January 1960. On 16 December 1983, Seahawk IN 238 flew for the last time in India, to welcome India’s three new Sea Harriers, which were coming from the UK to join 300 Squadron. Whilst giving accurate but broad-based data, the book is meant specifically for the ‘lay’ person, who is interested in accounts of military life. At places, they may sound untrue, but these are all facts; some stranger than fiction. It covers the nuances of flying at sea and shows how ordinary but skilled personnel execute the many challenges thrown at them. It describes some events that are unique and provides a wealth of expertise of many Naviators, who have all added their personal experiences. These pages reflect the glory of the valiant Seahawk, of The White Tiger Squadron and all those associated with them. All in all then, this is a great book for anyone interested in Hawker aircraft, the Indian Air Force or aviation in general. Great stuff! 399 page hardcover published 2010 ————————————————– SHIPPING:UK Items usually sent by Royal Mail, with tracking SHIPPING: OVERSEAS ITEMS WORTH LESS THAN €150 / £135 From 1 July 2021, the Brexit transition period ends. From this date forward, EVERYTHING sold to a country outside of the UK counts as an export, and as such could be subject to VAT/tax. EU member states require an IOSS (Import One Stop Shop) number, although this is optional. From 1 July, eBay should provide me with an IOSS number once you have completed checkout. I will then make sure this number is visible on your parcel. This is to tell the customs officials in your country that you have already paid the relevant taxes at point of purchase. The VAT rate for books and printed papers is 0% in the UK, but it may well be different for your country. The good news is that eBay have an entire team dedicated to working out the tax rates for you – these should be visible on your pre-order summary just before you complete checkout, and will be based on 1) the applicable VAT rate for the type of goods you have bought 2) the value of the goods. If you have won an item at open auction, then the final tax amount will not be visible until bidding ends. If you are purchasing a ‘buy it now’ item then the applicable tax should be visible before you complete checkout.This rule covers items less worth than €150 / £135, regardless of whether there is one item or multiple items in the order. For orders worth more than €150 / £135, please see below.Some countries such as Australian (ABN numbers) and some US States have already implemented the collection of taxes at point of purchase, so customers in these countries will in most cases be familiar with the collection of tax when buying on eBay UK. If any additional codes are required for your parcels, then I am confident that eBay will provide me with them. I will then in due course make sure they are visible on any paperwork or address labels, to show you have already paid your tax. current VAT rates for books can be seen here: https://www.internationalpublishers.org/our-work/vat-and-fixed-book-price/printed-books-and-vat-gst SHIPPING:OVERSEAS ORDER WORTH MORE THAN €150 / £135 If your order – whether an individual item or multiple items – is worth more than €150 / £135, then eBay will NOT provide me with an IOSS (Import One Stop Shop) number once you have completed checkout. Currently, such orders will be subject to tax/VAT (if required) only when they enter the destination country, at the discretion of the local tax authority and based on the tax rates for the kind of item(s) you have purchased. *Please note* that the parcel may also be subject to a release charge by the customs agency in your country. This is the system as it stands – in the future, there may become available a service whereby you can pay all charges up front, in which case I will update my listings.
