Fairly new channel "AEHS" with mixed-era aviation content and an emphasis on engines. I'm a member of the AEHS, so I am indeed biased.

Air Force is available on PrimeI haven't seen that in years.
Well crap! I just bought that book, I haven't got around to reading it yet, but what's wrong with it? Being not that large doesn't immediately get rid of all credibility. What's wrong with it?It doesn't help that the incorrigible moron Malcom Gladwell wrote a crap book of the same name, which my son could better (my son is two years old and eats fruit he smeared over his own face and then dropped on his trousers).
The book by the way "The bomber mafia" is basically an extended magazine article. It has literally zero primary source archive research and only manages to be a book at all by using a x10 font size, it has about 20 words a page and is thinner than your little finger.
Seems like that the primary sources were not consulted. If that is true, books can be pretty much just the opinions of a writer, and not something that is factually correct. Nothing wrong with having the opinions, but it means that the work is pretty much worthless for someone that likes facts more than opinions.Well crap!

From what I've read it isn't just opinions, in LordHrdThrasher's video of the same name I think he's using the book as a source, and his video was very good.Seems like that the primary sources were not consulted.

I don't understand first of all how he could know no primary sources were used, its a book about bombers and bombsights, how could it not have a basis in factThat the book is not based on primary sources was verbatim from the user you've quoted.

Yeah, I'm returning the book, thanks to all for helping let me know about it before it was too late for returnsJust because something is in print, doesn't make it authorative.
It may be a long read, but check out the thread titled "A New Book In My Library".Yeah, I'm returning the book, thanks to all for helping let me know about it before it was too late for returns
