To catch David, you'd have to buy a 1,000 books at one time at least. Go back through this thread and do a count. It's not a bad thing but I can't read what I have now with all of whats been given to me by friends and family.

Ok then, little secret. Don't make it three and you will live Modeling being one, books being two. Then again just ask here if should change hobby's to drinking and drugs. She will get off your case fast

You could always say that you've decided to give up scale modeling for collecting and restoring vintage aircraft...

Got a new one the other day:

X-Planes of the German Luftwaffe, Prototypes 1930 - 1945

Pretty well covers all of the German air industry from Arado to Zepplin. Doesn't show the production models, of course, but only the prototypes that led to production (or never did). It also gives data on the various prototypes that were pressed into service even if there wasn't a production version (example: Bf161 and 162 Schnellbomber prototypes later were used in the Me163 testing program)

The book gives good data about disposition and Werknummers.

Hardbound, 288 pages loaded with archive photos (at least one per page) Author is Manfred Griehl and it's printed by Frontline Books [ISBN: 184832555-X]

Forgot to post these. Got these in Victoria when I went down to move my daughter. The first one is mostly restorations with some period photos.

Good stuff Geo. I've got that second one - it's one of only two books I have that won't fit on the bookshelves vertically; it has to sit on its side, its so darned big !!

 

[Wayne Little]

Done good there George!

 

[Micdrow]

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]
