## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Decent
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 1, 2016*

Although Haynes has done some excellent books on modern combat aircraft, this entry in their "Owners' Workshop Manual" series isn't among my favorites. It has all the elements you'd expect - a brief potted history, a section on the aircraft's anatomy, some operational and procedural details, and lots of nice photographs and diagrams. It's not as detailed as many of Haynes' other aircraft manuals, nor does it gel together quite as well. Although the Phantom was a versatile multi-role aircraft still in service with seven air forces, this book focuses mainly on the FGR.2 variant used by the RAF. Although Haynes is a British publisher, I think they've done the Phantom a bit of a disservice here. The book attempts to condense the aircraft's 45-year history into a short introduction, which reads rather poorly. The technical and mechanical details are handled better, and there are some interesting asides on aircraft maintenance, flying qualities, and the Sparrow and Sidewinder missiles.This isn't a bad book, but considering that it mainly focuses solely on the FGR.2, it's somewhat misleadingly titled. Phantom Phans might enjoy it, but I hoped for a bit more "meat" from this one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    It is an informative book & worth the $$ paid as long as you can get it at a good discount.
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 20, 2015*

Excellent book, although why it would refer to being an "owner's workshop manual" is beyond me. For one thing, the lack of info one would need to actually "own & fly" one of these things would take thousands of pages of information. But, it is an informative book & worth the $$ paid as long as you can get it at a good discount.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    good book

too British oriented. They were a small player in Phantom ops.  A bit more technical would  have been preferred but good reading overall.
