The Only Book on the A-12?,
By A Customer
This review is from: A-12 Blackbird Declassified (Motorbooks ColorTech) (Paperback)
This is a great book! I've been interested in Blackbird spy planes since I was a kid. I'd heard about the A-12 but I thought it was a secret Navy plane that never got built. What a surprise to find out it was really the granddaddy of the SR-71 spy plane. I learned things about the Blackbirds that I never even suspected. For instance, I never even knew there was a Blackbird drone. The book is pretty technical in places, but if you read it carefully, it all makes sense. The writing is very good, and the photos are super. I saw a few typos, but they didn't take away from the book's value in any way. I recommend it highly for people who are crazy about airplanes. You don't have to be an expert to enjoy the book, but I think aviation experts will enjoy it, too.

Who is Brad Simpson? He's Not the Author of this Book!,
By J A Ventolo (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A-12 Blackbird Declassified (Motorbooks ColorTech) (Paperback)
This listing should show Jeannette Remak and Joseph Ventolo as the co-authors. This was the second of three books by those authors, and the first to have been published on the A-12 Blackbird. At least it was not badly ruined on publication as was their last one.
