The Books Are Coming

I'm very excited. Arrived home yesteday afternoon to find a couple of the Brisfit books I'd ordered had arrived. Tore the wrapping open and there, in all their glory, were:

FLYING MINNOWS and
THE EAGLES HEIGHT

Still waiting for the following ones to arrive:

With a Bristol Fighter Squadron, by Walter Noble
Bristol F2B King of Two Seaters, by Chaz Bower
Aces and Kings," by Lawrence Sutherland
Bristol Fighter Aces of WWI, by Jon Guttman


This'll keep me occupied for a while!

Let Us Know

Dear Cobby, When you finish them please treat the rest of us to a mini-review. I know that somedays I seem to be a walking advertisement here in the Forum for certain books but, with books costing between $25 and $60 nowadays, it helps to know what's good and what's not so good. Enjoy them. VR, Scott

Darren, your book on Von Schleich is next on the hit list. I've been interested in him ever since I was knee high to a grasshopper and made an Airfix model of his Roland CII.

Scott, not a bad idea at all. Be happy too provide revews on them. I'm already well into The Eagles Height.

Jeez, you guys in the land of the trailer trash don't live in the real world. You all earn more than the rest of us and pay half price for your books and then complain about it!
