In the next issue of FlyPast we shine our Spotlight on the Gloster Meteor, the fi rst British jet fi ghter
and the only Allied jet aircraft to undertake combat operations during World War Two. Nearly 4,000
examples of this pioneering machine were built – with some still airworthy today. The October issue will
be in UK shops on September 1, or see page 68 for our latest money-saving subscription offers.
