The research that has gone into these chapters is exhaustive and technical. They represent a detailed history of the development and manufacture of the CAC Wirraway, Wackett and Boomerang aircraft in the early days of the Australian aviation industry. These draft chapters feature Keith Meggs' hand-written edits, presumably for proofreading a final publication.

Photos are of several Boomerangs, but mostly concern A46-1001. This appears to be an experimental variant fitted with a turbo-supercharger and a tailplane closely resembling the P-51 Mustang. This represents the CAC's attempts to improve the Boomerang design before settling on license-building the Mustang.
