Recommended!
This is as good as it gets as far as a
book that concentrates purely on US
test units... Which is good, because
it's really the ONLY book! All the
major bases and units are covered...
In just the first few pages I learned
a few things I didn't know, and at
least 3/4 of the photos are previously
unpublished to my knowledge. Eglin in
particular has a lot of fresh
material... Well worth the money. |

This book is out of print, but worth
having if they have a used copy
available. It covers the aircraft that
were flown at each research center, up
to about 1992. |
