Whistling Death is the true story, by the test pilot, of the rush to produce the F4U Corsair, the Navy fighter that brought America air superiority over the Japanese Zero in World War II. Here is the crash program - complete with crash landings - powered by the dedicated men and women of the home front who designed and built this revolutionary, tide-turning airplane. Boone T. Guyton, an experimental test pilot at Chance Vought during and after World War II, flew 105 types of aircraft in 45 years as a pilot. |

Germany's jack-of-all-trades wonderplane gets the Aero Detail treatment. Only two Ju88's exist in the world in anything resembling their original condition (U.S. Air Force Museum and R.A.F. Museum), and both are covered with 375 full-color detail photos. In addition, a Ju88 being restored in Norway is also covered, though it is in pieces (these photos are actually quite revealing!). As usual, complete technical illustrations and historical photos cover all variations of the plane, especially structural components that photos cannot show. A dozen marking examples, too. All captions and commentary in English and Japanese. |

The first accessible reference to cover the history, context, current issues, and key concepts surrounding biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons. The United States has conducted some 900 atomic tests since 1945 and has stockpiled enough smallpox vaccine to inoculate most of the U.S. population. The topic of weapons of mass destruction is perhaps the most controversial subject of our time. Policy debates require understanding of key issues, concepts, and events. A collection of information on everything from aerosols to zones of peace, these two volumes cover historical background, technology, and strategic implications of biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons, thus providing facts, terms, and context needed to participate in contemporary policy debate. This encyclopedia is the only comprehensive reference dedicated to the three types of weapons of mass destruction. With over 500 entries arranged alphabetically, volume one covers biological and chemical weapons, while volume two focuses on nuclear weapons. Experts from eight countries cover issues related to these weapons, policies, strategies, technologies, delivery vehicles, arms control concepts, treaties, and key historical figures and locations. Entries are written to make difficult concepts easy to understand by cutting through military and scientific jargon. Students, lay readers, scientists, and government policy makers are provided with the broad range of information needed to place today's policy discussions in proper strategic or historical context. |

The Hayabusa (Peregrine Falcon) "Oscar" was the most widely flown fighter of the JAAF and appeared in every theater of operations during the war. This is the aircraft that most of the Japanese aces scored their kills. Amazing considering just how under gunned (2 7.7mm MGs later 1 12.7mm and 1 7.7mm MG) and un-protected it was. This aircraft was the only one to have had a song written for it that is still sung in Japan today.
The superb-condition planes in the Alpine Fighter Collection in New Zealand (now sold to an undisclosed collector) and EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) Museum are covered completely with 202 full-color detail photos. As usual, dozens of pages of technical drawings, marking illustrations, three-views and b/w historical photos show off what the detail photos cannot. Concise diagrams take you through all variants of the plane and point out key differences. The perfect modeling reference. A must for WWII aviation fans! |
