Notes: CD-ROM, Catalogue # 3005

Like warbirds? Many do. The thundering round motors, and screaming in-lines along with the banshee wail of jets are enough to get one's blood pumping. An amazing number and type of ex-military planes have made it to the civil roster. Some with other government organizations but most in the hands of wealthy enthusiasts who like to fly these planes, have the ego cranked up a few hundred notches, and have them shown off to others.

 Well, this is a CD for you. There are 157 images covering 395 megabytes of your favorites from Corsairs to Catalinas with a myriad of Mustang and tens of T-6s and T-28s plus some a bit more exotic like a Budd deteriorating in Mexico and a Walrus in need of some care and understanding.

Like the other CD's these are overall portraits of these planes with image quality generally very good, though you can understand why a few would be less than perfect due to the age of the image and its rarity.

I know I liked it and I am equally sure that you will as well. Here is a sample, photographed in 1977.

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