Here is another fine photo CD from our friends at Aero Research. This one covers what are known as 'Boss Birds' in the USAF. Those are planes flown by or assigned to the squadron or wing commander. These plane either have the squadron or wing number on the fin or have command stripes or the multi-colored bands on the fin for each of the wing's squadrons.

With 378 Megabytes of images, there are 155 separate entries, each with as much information as is known about the image like the place and date the photo was taken, though not all have this information available for various reasons. It goes from the 1st GAFTS (German Air Force Training Squadron) to the 944th TFG as well as some special units.

Like the other CD's these are overall portraits of these planes with image quality generally excellent. There are a few landing and in-flight shots as well.

I know I liked it and I am equally sure that you will as well.

You can get more information by e-mailing AeroResearch@Charter.net as they have not yet established a web site. You can also phone them at (775) 746-8615 to order via credit card. Thanks to Aero Research for the review CD.
