In this second volume of a four-volume set, Mr. Elliott continues his presentation of the US Navy and Marine Corps aircraft colors and markings during the decade of the 1940s. From the opening of the decade with its still colorful approach to aircraft recognition, to the close of the 40s with its more somber wartime color schemes, the author brings to the reader fresh information, photographs and illustrations. The various combatants in this world-wide struggle sought paint and protection solutions which would prolong the combat life of their aircraft while at the same time also sought to devise markings by which friendly forces could be recognized form those of the enemy.The US Navy and Marine Corps aircraft of the period certainly reflected these goals. Complex, yet effective approaches to the problem have been set forth by the author who meticulously documents each change in painting and aircraft marking, giving us new insight into this fascinating period of aircraft history. 324 photographs, 57 colour photos, 21 colour artwork and 48 unit insignia, 28 paint chips.

Pacific Aircraft Wrecks and Where to Find Them
Автор: Charles Darby
Издательство: Kookaburra Technical Publicati
Год издания: 1979
isbn: 0858800357
Количество страниц: 83
Язык: english
Формат: PDF (scan)

For years the large number of fairly intact aircraft which survived the warin remote former battlegrounds in the Pacific have been the subeject of misleading stories and hearsay. Almost every effort to produce photographic evidence of such finds has been met with secrecy or a notable lack of co-operation. In the meantime the most desirable aircraft continue to be salvaged by those in the know "in the know" and some even made to fly again. Charles Darby now rectifies this frustrating situation by presenting for the first time the results of his first-hand inspection of nearly 2,000 aircraft wrecks and crash sites over a period of some 15 years, together with the details of some of the many salvage operations in which he participated in. Published in 1979 this book still remains the bible for WW2 aircraft wrecks in the south west pacific. Vivid photographs and concise descriptions provide valuable information to wreck enthusiasts or people wishing to find information of the circumstances of relatives killed in WW2. Missing: pages 21-42.

Aviatik vintage aircraft no.1: Spad VII C.1

Язык: английский/польский (English/Polish) The fighter Spad VII, which appeared at the Western Front in summer 1916, was actually one of the first Allied fighters designed and built thoroughly to serve one purpose only. And it was to win absolute supremacy in the air over German air forces. Disregarding some initial difficulties, the airplane proved to be so efficient that it was used for a long time after military operations of the Great War had ceased serving successfully in the air forces of many countries and taking part in local conflicts almost all over the world. The popularity of this machine is clearly illustrated by the fact that there were situations in which Spad VIIs met in air combats of conflicted parties, which both had them in the active service at the same time. The last "sevens" were dismissed from the service only in the late 20s. Here is a history of this legendary airplane.

Aces High. The War in the Air Over the Western Front, 1914-18
Автор: Alan Clark
Издательство: Cassell
Год издания: 1999
isbn: 030435225X
Количество страниц: 192
Язык: english
Формат: PDF (scan)

This powerful account of war in the air on the Western Front during World War I is by the distinguished military historian Alan Clark. Covering fighting squadrons on both sides of the conflict, ACES HIGH captures the lives of the idealistic young men who joined the air services in the early months of the war, who, if they survived, grew into the embittered but courageous aces of 1916 and 1917 - men like Manfred von Richthofen, Albert Ball, Mick Mannock, Georges Guynemer, Charles Nungesser and Raoul Lufbery. In 1914 the conquest of the air was newer, less sure and vested with a still higher romance than that of space today. The frailty of the aeroplanes, the incendiary bullets of the enemy, the banning of parachutes as "likely" to lower morale' made death a three to one certainty. The aces performed acts of incredible bravery and skill but almost all lost their lives or their sanity. Alan Clark writes of the planes they flew and their evolution from "stringbags" and "flying coffins" to the sophisticated tactical machines of 1918. He also tells of the high commands who failed to recognized the significance of the aerial contribution to the war and sent men to their deaths in inadequate and badly designed planes. More than a chronicle of aerial warfare during five turbulent years, ACES HIGH is a highly illustrated and exciting account of men at war in the skies and an illuminating survey of the tactics and strategies that led to ultimate Allied victory.
