Aviation, An Historical Survey from Its Origins to the End of World War II,
by Charles Gibbs-Smith, and published by HMSO in 1970, Whittle rates three references only and by the second he is an Air Commodore! H. Montgomery Hyde’s
British Air Policy Between the Wars 1918–1931,
London: Heinemann, 1976, 539pp, has one reference and one note on Whittle.
