Aero Research is back with the second installment of their Jetliner photo libraries. This new photo CD features a random sampling of USAF aircraft photos that were taken anywhere between the mid 1960s to the early 2000s. 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. Nonetheless, few of the airlines depicted in these photos still exist today.

This latest installment includes images of:

  • Boeing 707
  • Boeing 720
  • Boeing 727
  • Boeing 737
  • Boeing 747
  • Boeing 757
  • Boeing 767
  • Convair 880
  • Convair 990
  • DC-8
  • DC-9
  • DC-10
  • MD-11
  • VFW 614

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!

You can purchase this reference or any of their other photo CDs directly from their website www.aeroresearchcds.com or via email AeroResearch@Charter.net.

My sincere thanks to Aero Research for this review sample!
