County Durham does not instantly spring to mind when the history of British aviation is discussed or recalled, but it has a long association with aeroplanes, one stretching back to the earliest years of powered flight in the country.

This book, a sequel to County Durham Aviation Stories, describes some of the early aviation antics in County Durham, Zeppelin raids in World War I and the crash of a Spitfire above Stanhope in March 1942. Other chapters deal with fund-raising efforts to buy fighter aircraft, a post-war mystery and an incident at Teesside Airport that involved a radioactive cannister!
