Though this remarkable, piston-engined dive-bomber was developed too late for service in World War II, it served with distinction in both Korea and Vietnam. Its rugged construction and ability to carry more than three tons of ordnance made it ideal for a wide variety of tasks, thereby ensuring its longevity. Illustrated with more than 200 photographs, including an eight-page color section, this meticulously researched history fully charts the design, development, and service histories of all Skyraider variants. |

This is a detailed review of the establishment and activities of government flight-test centers in Germany from the resumption of flight testing in the 1920s until the end of the Second World War. The authors begin with the secret testing in cooperation with the Red Army in the 1920-30s and cover the major locations where testing was conducted including Johannisthal, Lipetsk, Rechlin, Travemünde, Tarnewitz and Peenemünde-West. Other less well-known locations including early experimentation at Döberitz and Danzig are also covered.
The book draws on an extensive collection of photographs and documents, many taken from previously unpublished sources. There are also comprehensive listings of the aircraft used, with such details as Werknummern, markings and engines. There are similarly detailed lists of personnel and the various research and test units. |

This detailed review of Soviet experimental aircraft from the early 1900s to the latest Russian prototypes of today is the first book to take a close look at all of the major Soviet experimental aircraft in one concise volume. Working from original sources, the authors have produced an outstanding reference which, although concentrates on hardware, also includes many projects that were built but never flew, and even a few that never got off the proverbial drawing board. About 150 aircraft types are described, each with relevant data, including many three-view drawings. |

Formed at the start of the "Cold War" era, the Military Air Transport Service (MATS) sprung out of the newly-created United States Air Force to serve the U.S. military throughout the world. From the Berlin Airlift to Vietnam, MATS crews and aircraft were found at every "hot spot," and MATS represented a golden era for the United States Air Force.
As well as the history of the service in general, Williams provides in-depth coverage of each type of aircraft operated. A superb selection of photographs in high quality, large-format reproduction accents the text. |
