Slartibartfast 153 Posted December 14, 2009 Might be better to ask in the OFF as I will admit I am looking for one too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fielder 0 Posted December 15, 2009 Rand McNally Encyclopedia of Military Aircraft: 1914 to the Present 59cents on amazon right now. And it makes a great monitor stand! Or a doorstop when significant other arrives loaded down with Xmas boxes. :) Several large 3 page color foldouts of scouts and bombers. These would look nice framed on the wall. Brief summaries is all there is, not a treasure trove of information. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rickitycrate 10 Posted December 15, 2009 Needles a better answer can be given if you are a little more specific. There is a large number of very good books. Is price an issue as there are many online resources. Amazon for new of course, ABEbooks for economical secondhand. Here's a few ideas for start Janes' Fighting Aircraft of World War 1 Knights of the Air from Time/Life Fighter Aircraft of the 1914-1918 War by Lamberton and Chessman German Aircraft of World War One by Gray and Thetford That's a small start. Again specifics would help or just searching the net and finding things that sound of interest to you should work pretty well. Much information can be found at the OFF forum and books have been discussed many a time. Maybe try a forum search there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
