Complete volumes, if available, from 2005 through 2020 are all now $40; complete volumes from before 2005 remain at $20 a volume, again plus shipping outside the US. Back volumes and issues for 2021 and later remain $60/volume and $20/issue (plus shipping if outside the US).
We open with Christophe Cony’s look at some of the captured German aircraft, as exhibited in Paris in 1918. Carl Bobrow then introduces us to early German motion picture pioneer Oskar Messter, who was also a pioneer in developing roll-film cameras for military reconnaissance work. One day in Flanders during October 1918 is the topic of Walter Pieters and Alain Van Geeteruyen’s article, and Steven Suddaby begins a multi-part series on German bombing missions on mainland Europe. The issue wraps up with Peter Kilduff’s look at some of the newest books bearing on World War aviation.
