That would be one hell off resource book and just for entertaining reading, I noticed the Wigram Spitfire in there, Kenneth Mores 'Reach for the Sky' machine that was used for a few other purposes, but - a 360 page reference WOW !, be one book you could spend hours in, I best go a source it, won't look in NZ shops they seem to triple the price, think to Amazon would be my choice. EDIT: .. I did notice 'BLUETHUNDER' in there as well, BUGGER ! 360 pages softcover, I'll wait for the Hardcover version, seem's softcover's this size have a tendency to fall apart. EDIT: Double ... About the Author(s) Simon D. Beck has had a life long passion for aviation and cinema history. He works in the television industry and lives in Christchurch, New Zealand. Think I may just give Simon a Nudge Nudge, get a copy hand delivered and signed

I searched for it on Mighty Ape, $111.00. At that price it can stay there.

I did check the format size 178 X 254, I would easy pay the $111.00 but, simply I think if the size and course the my preference would still be Hardcover was ... I will seriously keep my eyeballs out at the local bookshops, my mission during the next few weeks, give you the HU if I find this, I'm sure it cannot be to hard to reproduce a Hardcover batch 2 print.
