A History of Chinese Aviation


Lennart Andersson is a Swedish historian/researcher, who’s an expert on the period between the wars. Recently he published “A History of Chinese Aviation: Encyclopedia of Aircraft and Aviation in China until 1949”.
Highly recommended about a topic which is difficult to find info on.

Rating 4/5

The book is available through: http://z-bok.se/InEnglish.html

Suomen Ilmavoimat




I received part six of Keskinen/Stenman’s excellent “Suomen Ilmavoimat” recently. This dual language series is a must if you’re interested in Finnish Air Force during the Second World War!

Rating 5/5

The books are available from http://www.kolumbus.fi/kari.stenman/
In an interesting discussion at the TOCH forum a interesting link turned up:
http://www.maxwell.af.mil/au/aul/aupress/
At this site several interesting books are available for download as pdf.

My blogg

This is an attempt to start a blogg about aviation (and other) matters slightly out of the scope of my site, to promote good books, interesting web-sites etc.
