    Andreas Rupprecht writes cool books! And who says Rupprecht, says China! This is the umpteenth book of him, published by Harpia Publishing. I am really very happy with this publisher and what they have published till now. On their site it states at the category ‘Strategic handbooks’, only 1 book, but, as far as I am concerned, all the books – also this one – can be stated in this category, when it concerns nowadays airforces or other flying army units. As the quality and information value can be rated as ‘good’!

    (English) When you are talking about the best series of aviation books, then this one is absolutely in my top 3! Why? Just because I can..and must be! This book is 472 pages and contains, just as the other 3 books that were
    published in the past years in this series, really beautiful pictures.

    Yes! Here is another book of one of the most beautiful series that I collect! This time ‘Cuban Migs’ -and for the people that do not know the books of Harpia Publishing-; a great book that is part of a large series of books that, in the meantime, is published by them.

    Dit is weer zo’n boekje van ‘yes, zo wil ik ze liefst allemaal lezen!’. Peer Dekkers is gepensioneerd Luchtmachtvlieger en heeft zowat alles gevlogen wat er maar los en vast zit lijkt het. Ik zie zelfs de F-84 nog in zijn lijstje staan. Dat zegt genoeg. Maar ook de F-104 en F-16 en…duizenden uren ervaring […]

    (English) Dirk Jan de Ridder is addicted to aviation photography and that delivered him beautiful pictures. Since he was 7, when he visited an aviation show at Gilze Rijen for the first time, he is ‘sold’ to aviation and more specific and foremost, military aviation. Throughout the years he makes trips to 23 different countries all over the world, which supplied him with pictures of planes and helicopters from 71 countries! Dirk Jan now decided to unite the most beautiful
    ones in a book.

    Een roman over de luchtvaart. Ik weet eigenlijk niet of dit boek wel thuis hoort bij AviationBookReviews.com, want de naam dekt niet helemaal de lading. Duke Thomas -de hoofdpersoon in deze luchtvaartroman- is een ‘ace’ tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog en een vlieger in dienst bij de toenmalige USAAF met een grote passie, namelijk de archeologie […]

    289th Review Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles- current Types, Ordnance and Operations- Dan Gettinger Het moest er natuurlijk een keer van komen; een review van een boek over onbemande vliegtuigen. Eerlijk is eerlijk, ik had me er een beetje tegen verzet, tegen boeken over dit soort vliegtuigen, omdat deze vliegtuigen niet meer de romantiek weerspiegelen die […]
