Digitalvole Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 For those of us in the uk; I just picked up a reprint of a 1940s spitfire training book and other bits and bobs, from The Works for £3. If you have one in your area it’s worth a look, they had plenty of copies in the one I was in. You may already know all the stuff in it (being a very knowledgable bunch) but for three quid I though it was worth mentioning :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_mojo97 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) Yeah, there a slightly different one on eBay with a different cover for 2.45 inc postage but probably essential the same thing Edited May 3, 2019 by mr_mojo97 MSI M5 z270 | Intel i5 7600k (OC) 4.8GHz | MSI GTX1080ti Gaming X 11Gb | 500gb Samsung 970 Evo NVME M.2 (DCS World) | 500gb Samsung 850 Evo SSD (OS and Apps) | 32Gb 2400MHz DDR4 - Crucial Ballistix | Be Quiet Silent Loop 240mm | NZXT H440 case | Thrustmaster Warthog - 47608 with Virpil Mongoose joystick base | MFG Crosswinds - 1241 | Westland Lynx collective with Bodnar X board | Pilot's seat from ZH832 Merlin | JetSeat | Oculus Rift S | Windows 10 | VA | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulaco Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Looks like a cool get, inexpensive too! This got me on a bit of a goose chase hunting for a comprehensive encyclopedia that covers every type of aircraft flown in WWII. Does something like this exist? Anyone know of a one stop, go to book that covers it all from a technical viewpoint? If you do please let us know. Thanks guys and thanks for the info on the Spit manual ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
