Review
Aero Research is back with their seventh installment of their USAF photo libraries. This new photo CD features a random sampling of USAF aircraft photos that were taken anywhere between the early 1950s to present. None of these photos are from the government photo archives, these are all compiled from the same excellent range of professional (or very skilled) aviation photographers. Most importantly, all of these photos are of aircraft still in service, no derelicts, boneyard storage, or museum pieces. Many of them were photographed in various theaters around the world.
This latest installment includes images of:
- A-7D Corsair II
- A-10A Thunderbolt II
- B-57 Canberra
- C-9 Nightengale
- C-10 Extender
- C-26
- C-47 Skytrain
- C-118 Liftmaster
- C-124 Globemaster II
- C-130 Hercules
- C-131 Samaritan
- C-133 Cargomaster
- C-135 Stratotanker

For the tail spotter, you'll see these aircraft from a variety of time periods to that you'll get representative configurations of the airframe during different phases of its operational life. You'll also be able to see the aircraft in a variety of color schemes. For the modeler, you'll see lots of good details and color information for tackling that next project.

This is a nice selection of imagery that you won't find available in such clarity and size. This title is recommended!
