The subtitle to this Datafile emphasizes the problems of identification that continue to confuse enthusiasts when French WWI Nieuport nomenclature is studied. In order to help modellers differentiate between the Nieuport 17 and its various relatives, JM Bruce has also provided illustrations and data for the 17 bis, 21 and 23 while Ian Stair reflects the scope of the contents by providing drawings for all these versions. The Nieuport 17 has always been a firm favourite with modellers and full-size replica builders the world over and this compilation of archive photographs, together with a sampling of the original 1917 German Rozendaal drawings based on captured examples, makes a valuable contribution to our knowledge of this classic WWI French design.

Eglin Air Force Base is a United States Air Force base located 1-mile (1.6 km) southwest of Valparaiso in Okaloosa County, Florida, United States. It was named in honor of World War I aviator and test pilot Lt Col Frederick Irving Eglin. Since its founding in 1933 Eglin has evolved from a remote bombing and gunnery range in the 1930s (although very little actual bombing was done at the outset) into the military's primary non-nuclear test facility, it now supports a wide variety of multi-service test missions as well as providing a home for many special operations functions.
The Osprey Superbase series takes the enthusiast behind the scenes on the world's major air bases. This up-front series features spectacular, exclusive colour photography from aviation's camera sharpshooters. If you want to get inside the perimeter fence to see combat aircraft in their natural habitat, the Superbase series is literally where it's at.

The Pfalz D.IIIA offered few advantages over the D.III other than the important relocation of the machine guns to the upper fuselage thus making them more accessible to the pilot and easier to aim in combat. An increased area tailplane and rounded lower wing tips on most D.IIIAs provided some aerodynamic improvements although neither version was as readily popular with the majority of German pilots as were the Albatros D.v, Fokker Dr.I and, later, the D.VII.
This volume presents a unique reference package which includes the largest collective number of Pfalz D.IIIA photographs ever published. Once again historian Peter M. Grosz shares with us his unique archive and historical material while draughtsman Steve Simkin provides exacting detailed drawings to the standard 1/72nd and 1/48th scales which will delight all modellers. Several of the D.IIIA photographs in this book are published for the very first time and while a number of them are admittedly of poor quality, they reveal sufficiently interesting markings or rarely-appreciated details that warrant their inclusion.
