Aero Research has released their next photo reference CD, this covering a variety of commercial piston-powered aircraft. Once again I used my image browser to scan through the aircraft on the disc and I was quite impressed with the selection of aircraft. In this release, there are a nice variety of (mostly) piston-powered airliners, some that were still in service in the late 1960s and into the early 1970s, while others were parked in storage.

The line-up of aircraft on this disk cover the following aircraft types:

  • Boeing 377 Stratocruiser
  • C-46
  • CBY-3
  • Constellation/C-121
  • Convair 440
  • Convair 580
  • DC-3/C-47
  • DC-4/C-54
  • DC-6/C-118
  • DC-7

For the modeler, you'll see lots of good details and color information for a trip down memory lane or perhaps to tackle a scale airliner kit for a change of pace. For the enthusiast and modeler alike, you can browse through a nice variety of high-resolution images of some very nice aircraft!

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!
