Osprey has been publishing indispensable reference books for decades and now they are revamping the look of both the ‘Aircraft of Aces’ and ‘Combat Aircraft’ series. One I am looking forward to is this latest study of A-10 use in Operation Enduring Freedom.

The A-10 has been my favorite plane since I was a kid. I can remember giving a speech on it when I was in Junior High School. I wrote to the Fairchild company and they sent me all kinds of posters and pics of the aircraft. This will be a book I will be looking to pick up for sure.
Ha ha, I did the same thing. Had to act as a gun runner selling a product of the defence industry for a history assignment.
Loved the series as a kid, and now my youngest can enjoy them again.
Oh man…that was a trip back down memory lane! As a young kid I would build models for fun and to compete and I had stacks of these on military planes and vehicles. Other boys had Playboy’s under the bed, I had these 🙂
I will take a good look around the site and perhaps buy a few books. Thanks for this post SSD!
Thanks for the Time Trip. Back when I was a model kit fiend, I had my Holy Trinity of references: Jane’s, Detail & Scale, and Osprey.
