Ta-152 book by Eagle Editions

Saw the book this past Saturday at Aviation World in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Yeah, the crack down over the G20 was evident, but has anyone else seen the book yet?

Re: Ta-152 book by Eagle Editions

Received this book for my birthday (June 8) and just finished reading it last night. Very nice book. Many photographs I have never seen before. Learned some interesting facts about it that I would never have known.

Would have liked more detail about the very few combat missions it did fly. And more explanation of the negative twist of the trailing edge of the wing.

Glad to see author took a step to identify the wrk num of the NASM TA-152. I have been very fortunate as a Smithsonian volunteer to examine this aircraft in storage closely.

Re: Ta-152 book by Eagle Editions

Pre-ordered (paid) mine from Monogram years ago, but still undecided if I take Eagle's offer to ship it over at their extra shipping rate.

Most titles I got from them were damaged in transit, shipped in mailbags at relatively high shipping cost. Not very keen to repeat that experience.

Still, I've got a pre-paid order with my name on it.

Funny was just thinking about this book earlier today!

Looks like I have to make up my mind soon.
