Notes: CD-ROM, Catalogue # 1012

This latest CD from Aero Research contains images of USN A-6 Intruders and both USN and USMC EA-6A and EA-6B aircraft.  There are 151 huge images filling 364 megabytes of disc space.

The images are arranged in order of the unit that flew the aircraft starting with the Naval Air Test Center. The quality of the photos is, for the most part, outstanding with the images crisp and clear. There are even a few air to air images and many of the planes are CAG birds with the variety of colors in the tail markings. There are only a few USMC A-6s on the disc so I'm sure that there will be a second disc in the future that will pick up what was missed on this one. Those who have bought previous editions tell me how useful these are when it comes to building a model. These are not detail shots but overall views of the plane throughout its career.  Each image is annotated with as much information on the picture as was available on the original slide.

Truly a disc of eye candy that I am positive you will find to your liking.

 You can get more information by e-mailing AeroResearch@Charter.net as they have not yet established a web site. Thanks to Aero Research for the review CD.
