Product Description
Synopsis
Designed as an interceptor, when the Bell P-39 Airacobra appeared in 1941 it was acclaimed as one of the most advanced combat planes of all time. Elegantly designed and innovatively engineered (it featured the engine mid-aircraft like a racing car), it experienced mixed operational fortunes but was especially successful in the Soviet air force. This book is a full technical history of this important but neglected fighter of World War Two. It presents scale plans of all versions, many detailed photographs of surviving aircraft, full colour illustrations of the aircraft in the different liveries of its many users: USA, RAF, Soviet, French, Italian and others. * Rarely documented aspect of World War Two aviation history. * Superb colour illustrations of camouflage and markings, walkaround colour photographs and rare b+w archive photographs. * Essential reading for aviation enthusiasts & scale aero-modellers.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Airacobra walk around, with lots of extra's, 29 May 2003
By D. P. Broer (LEIDEN, ZH Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is my latest addition to my Airacobra collection (to be precise my 11th title), and I am very impressed with the book, which is almost as good as this publisher's Gloster Gladiator issue. The book can be used as a 'Walk around' because it offers a wealth of detail coulour photographs in it's second section, but anyone wishing a quick introduction into the various Airacobra variants can be very pleased with the information given in part one. New for me was the detailed list of improvements made by the Russians when using this plane. The third and last part of the book is aimed at the moddeler, giving a lot of colour profiles, including a Polish Airacobra. There is also a good bibliography section between the detail photographs and the colour profiles, which names amongst others three titles which can not be found on my 'listmania' list about this plane, being in Russian and in Polish. Compared to 'P-39 Airacobra in detail and Scale' and 'Airacobra in Action', two books more or less comparable to this one, this book is the better one. Highly recommended.
