The conception of the Pegasus engine in 1957 upset all the conventions of aircraft design. It was previously usual for aircraft designers to seek a suitable engine, but this was an engine that sought an aircraft. The aircraft that resulted was the famous Harrier that is still in front-line service with air forces around the world including the RAF and US Marine Corps. This book takes an in-depth look at the engine's original design concept, initial production and flight testing. It then goes on to explain how the developments and improvements have been made over the ensuing years and includes experiences of operational combat flying, both from land and sea. The book is written in a non technical style that makes comfortable reading for all enthusiasts and historians and is copiously illustrated with many previously unseen photographs and diagrams.

Both quality and productivity improvement are the driving forces for accelerating the growth of factories. Factories specialise in manufacturing of specialised products such as polo shirts, bottoms and shirts, require specialised machineries with maximum level of mechanisation/automation, whereas companies involved in manufacturing of multi-product categories, which include fashion apparels, have to deal with small order quantities with frequent style changeover. Hence flexibility and set-up time minimisation are important criteria for equipment selection. In this series, Dr. Prabir Jana with the help of StitchWorld technical team, identifies seven critical operations for analysis.
