I'm thinking this a students first classroom manual or something like that

Hi!

It is a textbook for technical personnel. The book' title can be translated as "Airplane" - "Samolet".

Thank you. Having a translation helps with any non English manuals for klutz's like me who are unable to read the original manual.

Unfortunately Airplane is a pretty generic title so could you please translate the sub-title as that might give the rest of us a better idea of its contents

Thank you

Hi!

This subtitle can be translated as follows:

"The textbook for technical schools of VVS RKKA, volume 1"

There are two abbreviatives:

VVS - Voenno-Vozdushnye Sily - literally means "Military Air Forces"

RKKA - literally means "Worker's ans Peasant's Red Army"

So, if we compose the full no-abbreviative phrase, it can be translated as

"The textbook for technical schools of Military Air Forces of Workers and Peasants Red Army, volume 1"
