What People Are Saying

From the Publisher
Pacific Flyer, October 2006“We loved this book because it's filled with great photos of warbirds of all type...there's page upon page of fantasic photos of beautiful airplanes...It would make a great Christmas gift for a warbird fanatic."

Cybermodeler Online, September 2006 “At first blush, this looks like another compilation of photos, but this one is a little different…Author and aviation photographer Max Haynes has compiled a nice array of contemporary airshow photos that effectively catalog the aircraft you’re likely to see at your local airshow…If you’re an average airshow enthusiast, or even a modeler wanting to see some different perspectives from restored examples, this title is inexpensive, small enough to fit in a backpack or purse, and worth having around to keep those ‘experts’ honest.”
