4.0 out of 5 stars
In the Verlinden tradition..., April 25, 2007
This review is from: Uncovering Northrop's T-38A / AT-38 / T-38C Talon (Northrop (A)T-38 A/C TALON (Uncovering the ...) (Paperback)
Willy peeters is a long time cohort of Francois verlinden, this book will fit right in with Verlinden's Lock-On series. No panel is left undone, no hydraulic line or bolt goes unphotographed here. In a way it's a shame, this book is a terrific reference source but to my knowledge there really aren't any good T-38 Models out there in Current production, The Sword Models T-38 being the best of the bunch but rather expensive and very hard to find.
Kudos to Mr. Peeters and the DACO crew for taking on this subject. In my opinion the book (and all of the Lock-On series) would greatly benefit from more coverage of various unit markings, special markings, etc. For example, the USAF thunderbirds flew the 38 for years, yet there is only one T-bird picture in the book. A short article by Engineer/Aircrew/ Maintenance types would also help in a book that sells for @ $30.00.
Overall an excellent detail book of an airplane that has been needing more coverage.
