A question though... is the "Vengeance of outback" similar in the content to the "Vengeance! The Vultee Vengeance Dive Bomber" or these are of different kind?

 

[Wildcat]

Very different. Vengeance of the outback is the true story about a Vengeance and crew who went missing in the West Australian outback and the subsequent search for the aircrew. It's a good read but unfortunately doesn't end well for one of them.

Andy, how are those Royal units of the Australian Airforce 10 volume set. Looks real interesting and I have never seen those before?

Thanks in advance Paul

Hi Paul,
They are a good source when needing a quick reference on a particular unit. They are dated now, however, and only contain a very concise overview of units - info you can probably grab from a quick google search.

An amazing collection Wildcat, an excellent tribute to Royal Australian Air Force pilots, aircrews, ground crews and your aircraft industry.

Thanks Chris

I remember being impressed with FLAK and FLY, but it was only when FLY came out in 2008 with a photo of Micheal Veitch in it, when I finally twigged where I recognised him from.
From the comedy TV series Fast Forward.

Here he is brilliantly taking the piss outta Sonny Hammond's character from the Skippy TV show...

 

[Wildcat]

Yeah I was amazed too Graeme. He was great on Fast Forward

So trying something different for those that might be interested. Format is Excel and No it's not complete and I am still working on it. There are Errors and I have redone the format a few times so not everything filled out and I still have more to go. But for those interested I think I have about 90 percent of my library cataloged here in excel. I did this for two reason, one you can not see everything in pictures and two it well helps me from getting duplicates. I have the filters turned on so you can do some searches by authors and such. As I said there are errors but its a work in progress. Might help for some people if they want feed back on some books but I have to admit I have more books right now then I have read but may help for people doing for research.

All the best

Paul
