Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

Since we see a growing foreign interest in aircraft books published by the Dutch company Violaero, I'd like to start this topic.

The Dutch New Guinea book "Wachters boven het stenen tijdperk" was released in December. This book is about the Dutch naval airarm operating over New Guinea starting in 1926, the airwar during 1941-1945 and the first post war years up to 1950. Author: Bart Rijnhout, who published a great number of book about the Dutch naval airarm.
In this series a second volume is planned about the Dutch naval airarm operating over New Guinea. This book will cover the period 1950 - 1962.
The first volume was released in 2010 and is about the PBY Catalina in Dutch service (1941 to 1957). Final part will be about the Dutch Naval airarm on Java (Netherlands Indies, now Indonesia), period 1945 to 1950.

As we speak, the Fokker D.XXI book is being prepared for print. This book will reach stores by the second half of February.
The second Fokker G-1 book should be available by the end of this year, dealing with operational use and aircraft in Luftwaffe service.
Furthermore, the book "In dienst van hun naaste" is planned for the end of this year. This book will tell the story of the escape routes used by downed US Airforce personell and their Dutch helpers.

I am author of the Fokker C.5 book "Ontwikkeling, gebruik en ondergang". A second volume about the C.5 is planned, about foreign users (Bolivia, China, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Netherlands (Army aircorps, Netherlands Indies and Naval aircorps), Norway, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland. The sales efforts to sell the C.5 is also mentioned, and finally an apendix about the entire line of Fokker reconnaissance models.

For the longer term more aviation titles are planned. More info will follow!

They will deal with single aircraft subjects and feature both profile art and detailed picture material.

The one on the Martin Mariner sounds very interesting! Just give plenty of technical stuff (detail drawings, performance graphs, handling reports) and I'll buy a copy!

This is what you will get :)

Excellent news!:-)

Re: Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

A quick note to tell that the Martin Mariner book is now available for purchase (here, for instance: http://www.lanasta.eu/Shop/product/146/01-warplane.html)

The second part of the series is being prepared, as well as the third part, which will be about the Messerschmitt Me-109G/K family.

Best wishes,

Re: Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

The 109G/K book is availble. It contains a full overview of all subvariants in the form of sideviews! Also a large number of colour profiles are presented.

The next Warplane book is currently in the final stages of preparation; it is about the Brewster Buffalo. Also, the next title is announced: that will deal with the Fokker C.X.

Re: Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

In the Warplane series, the Brewster Buffalo title is now available, as is the book about the Bugatti 100P record plane.

Two Dutch titles have been released too:
Fokker G-1 part two (operational use)
Geen laag te hoog (about Dutch Fokker D.VII's operating from Iceland, performing weather trials)

Re: Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

Two new Warplane titles are under preparation:

05 Fokker C.X
06 Convair B-58 Hustler

Re: Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

Fokker C.10 is out:

Re: Upcoming Violaero aviation titles (Dutch publisher)
 

I see that Violaero also re-published "In dienst van hun naaste" (1980) and "Luchtbrug Market Garden" (1984) from Bart Rijnhout. These old publications were in that time already a disgrace in accuracy. If these books have been republished and their text were not corrected/edited, be aware that these books are full of errors......

Regards,

John
