It doesn't really matter much Rain, just some books on the overall planes and maybe some stuff on Albert Ball. I just pre-ordered my copy of The Last Stand so thats one book so far. I'd like something with top, side, and front views of the planes with details about the engines, speed, etc. Any help would be great! The main reason i need these is for some scratch aeroplane models.

I'm looking for an original print (or copy) of "Death in the Air: The War Diary and Photographs of a Flying Corps Pilot". Yes, I know it became infamous because it was just one massive hoax, but I'm interested to see what was written inside. Might as well get a little enjoyment out of it, eh?

funny you ask for it, I have looked at it last week, in abebooks, there are some around. try this link:
BookFinder.com: Search Results (Matching Titles)
bookfinder is a search engine for books that tries a bunch of online stores and lists the price for you. very nice.
