Precious Metal

Craig Potton Publishing is proud to announce the release of Precious Metal: Classic Fighters in New Zealand. This beautifully produced pocket hardback, full colour book by Gavin Conroy represents stunning air-to-air photography of classic fighter planes in New Zealand skies.

New Zealand is extremely lucky that there are a wide range of airworthy WW II-era classic fighters remaining in the country, the subject of this superb new book of aviation photography.

Author Gavin Conroy has had unparalleled access to New Zealand’s classic fighters, and specialises in close-up air-to-air photography, which captures so much of the character and appeal of these extraordinary machines.

The popularity of the fighter aircraft used in World War II is huge in New Zealand, as evidenced by the enormous crowds that turn up for events such as Warbirds over Wanaka, and it is certain that this book will find its way onto the bookshelves of the thousands of passionate warbird enthusiasts.

Precious Metal by Gavin Conroy is available from all good bookstores .
