I did have to do some shifting around of book cases in my man cave/hangar to accommodate another wall of shelves. The down side is that most of my models will be located elsewhere, likely down the basement...

I purchase that set myself after seeing it in my college library. Mine came in a box sleeve and though I have not looked at it for a while I remember being happy with it at the time. Now it is a bit dated. One thing I remember about the purchase was the fact that the package was not waterproof and it was left out on my porch in the rain. Was not happy. Now insist all purchases come "wrapped in plastic as the postman often leaves packages out in the rain". Hope you enjoy it for what it's worth.

Thanks for the info Jim, and well done on the current purchases

I haven't really dug into it yet Jim, trying to finish up 3 other books I have started but one thing I wish it had was more pictures and drawings but what I found interesting was the contents. Here is the contents of the book.

I saw a Dogfights episode on that crew. Very cool. Tough hombres and loners. Crew had a running battle with like 12 zeroes.

With my growing fascination with B-25 straffers I just ordered this book.
