Bristol, although not the first aircraft manufacturer in Britain, held a distinct advantage over its competitors. Founded by the well-established businessman Sir George White, the company experienced rapid growth from a small hangar at Larkhill in Wiltshire to a new site at Filton. By 2012, Bristol had established itself as one of the key aviation design, development, and manufacturing locations in Britain.
The success of Bristol can be attributed to a team of talented designers, engineers, test pilots, and the visionary leadership of Sir George over a century ago. The company has made its mark on the aviation industry with revolutionary aircraft and numerous firsts and records. Its contributions have benefited both military and civilian aircraft, as well as the engines, piston, turboprop, and jet.
The engineering excellence that was established at Filton has set a standard for the industry. This book explores the history of Bristol and the aircraft that it produced, highlighting the company's contributions to the aviation industry and its impact on the world of flight.
