North American's B-25 Mitchell bomber is given the patented Detail & Scale treatment in this 1999 Squadron/Signal release. The B-25 saw combat worldwide, serving as a medium bomber, low-level gunship and night intruder. Bert Kinzey gives the reader an up-close-and-personal tour of this versatile warbird. D&S Volume 60 devotes 80 pages to describing and illustrating the major USAAF Mitchell bomber and photo-recce variants - the B-25B, -C, -D, -J, F-10, etc. along with the USN/USMC PBJ models. Vintage and contemporary b&w and color photographs supply general and close-up images of each model. Don Greer supplies two pages of color profiles. As always, Kinzey's text is crisp, authoritative and informative. Realizing that previous B-25 illustrations were sometimes incorrect, Kinzey had Lloyd S. Jones create three-views that are the most accurate drawings of the Mitchell yet seen.

The P-38 Lightning represented a dramatic leap forward for fighter planes of its time. It was faster, bigger, and more heavily armed compared to other fighters, and easily recognizable with its distinctive twin tail booms.

This is a very interesting book that, by putting the Info w/Pictures, is Educational as well. Clarifies features found on some models but not on others. Lots of close-up and detailed pictures, perfect for scale modelers. Includes a section on the "Glacier Girl" restoration project (A P-38 rescued from its ice-covered Arctic crash site). Includes reviews of plastic scale models of the P-38.

This volume in the Detail & Scale Series completes our two-part coverage of the P-51 Mustang and P/F-82 Twin Mustang. Volume 50, entitled The P-51 Mustang in Detail & Scale. Part 1. covered all Mustang variants up through the P-51C. This title includes the remaining P-51 versions and all variants of the P/F-82 Twin Mustang. In order to illustrate the physical details of these aircraft in more detail than ever previously provided in any aviation publication, several trips were made by three different photographers to take scores of photographs specifically for this publication. Each of these photographers is also a modeler, and each took photographs that best illustrate the features a modeler would want to see. All three also built and reviewed kits for the Modelers Section at the end of this book.
