Ever since man first took to the air, combat aircraft have been at
the cutting edge of aviation technology, resulting in some of the
greatest and most complex designs ever built. Military Aircraft
features 52 of the most important military aircraft of the last
hundred years. The book includes all the main types, from biplane
fighters and carrier aircraft to tactical bombers, transport
aircraft, multirole fighters, strategic strike aircraft and stealth
bombers. Featured aircraft include: the Fokker Dr.1 triplane, the
legendary fighter flown by German flying ace Manfred von
Richthofen, 'the Red Baron', during World War I; the Mitsubishi A6M
Zero, Japan's highly-manoeuvrable fighter that dominated air-to-air
combat in the early part of the Pacific War; the tank-busting Il-2
Shturmovik, the most produced aircraft in World War II; the Harrier
jump jet, a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) fighter that has
been service for more than 40 years; the B-2 Spirit bomber, an
American precision strike aircraft used in recent conflicts in
Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan; and the F-22 Raptor, an air
superiority fighter with state-of-the-art stealth technology that
makes it almost invisible to radars. Each entry includes a brief
description of the model's development and history, a profile view,
key features and specifications. Packed with more than 200 artworks
and photographs, Military Aircraft is a colourful guide for the
military aviation enthusiast.
The author grew up in the Cincinnati, OH area and in Kentucky. He
used to play in his grandmas barn, and would jump down on bales of
hay. That was the beginning to, "let's learn to fly." It is said,
"you can't teach a dog new tricks," but being so young, he tried to
learn them all, tricks that is. This book is an offering of many of
his accomplishments in the flying arena along with excerpts from
some of the funniest statements by many of his pilot friends. You
might say some are almost like short stories in themselves. So much
happens during the flying period of time for a pilot. The
responsibility and learning factor is huge. Most will say "it is
all worth it." The book, hopefully, will bring laughter & a
time to relax to all of who choose to read it. ENJOY
In this second and final volume, the whole of the East Coast Main
Line between King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley stations is
examined closely, with a particular emphasis on the ways and
structures: the line, stations, connections, yards, and other
physical features. Interposed are accounts of the traffic at the
principal stations (including connecting and branch line services)
with observations on changes over the period 1939 to 1959. Some
emphasis is placed on freight traffic on account of its importance
and, perhaps, its relative unfamiliarity to the reader. The lines,
stations, and many other elements are described as they were in
August 1939, but as some plans on which they are based are dated
before the late 1930s, there may be marginal differences from the
precise layout in 1939.

compelling insider's account of one of the most controversial
periods in the British motor industry. The book covers: the
beginnings of Rover and its place in British Leyland; Land Rover's
expansion in the 1980s and how it led to the foundation of the
