I really like this book and the pictures of deatials on the aircraft, but there are WAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY too many typos in this book. In the first 3 pages I found about 4 typos.

Lots of detailed pictures on a seldomly covered aircraft. Very good for model builders like myself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Military Scale Model Aircraft Resource, July 21, 2006
An excellent reference source for the Military Aircraft Scale Modeler. I have always used the Verlinden Lock On series for references when building Military Scale Aircraft Models. Never build detail models without references.
