Notes: CD-ROM, Catalogue # 4001

This latest CD from Aero Research covers the venerable A-1 Skyraider in images from nearly every country that operated the type.

 There are 184 huge images filling 440 megabytes of disc space. Each image has all the known information about the aircraft including date and place photographed if it was known. The image quality ranges from fair to excellent. Some of these are quite old and so you'll also find some black and white images. If you can think of a Skyraider variant or scheme, it is here. There are also a few warbird and museum planes included in the mix. I have to say that I saw more inspiring model building possibilities on this particular CD than on just about any of the others that Aero Research has produced.

It my sound like hyperbole, but if you are a fan of the this aircraft, then you really must add this CD to your collection.

 You can get more information by e-mailing AeroResearch@Charter.net as they have not yet established a web site. To order your copy, call 775-746-8615 as they take major credit cards.

Thanks to Aero Research for the review CD.
