Hayward is a practical handbook on aviation written in the early 20th century. This instructional guide covers the design, construction, and operation of aeroplanes and gliders, catering mainly to amateur builders and aviation enthusiasts. Hayward emphasizes the importance of adhering to proven designs to avoid common pitfalls and failures faced by novice inventors venturing into aeronautics.  The opening of the handbook introduces the excitement surrounding the field of aviation, which has captivated amateur mechanics since the Wright Brothers' initial successes. Hayward cautions aspiring builders against the allure of untested designs and stresses the need for a solid foundation in proven models. He outlines the book's dual structure, comprising detailed guidance on model building, gliding, and constructing both biplane and monoplane types, along with insights into flying techniques and managing potential accidents. This early portion serves as a motivational primer, setting the stage for the more technical discussions to follow in later chapters.
