• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Great new book released

Osprey puts out a whole series of books. Three of which would be particularly interesting to our community. Aircraft of the Aces, Osprey Combat Aircraft (covers a particular aircraft such as the F4f) and Aviation Elite Units, such as "Pik-As." All have excellent pages of color profiles. Check them out at http://www.ospreypublishing.com/ and search under aviation-series.
 
Arcadia Publishing has some good titles covering local aviation history around the US. They are small books, usually $19.99 each. I have two titles covering Glenview Naval Air Station and the Lake Michigan paddle-wheel training carriers, both were well done.

Haven't ordered mine yet but I do have a lot of the WW2 related Osprey books.
