The 5th edition of Final Cut is back from the printers and available. For those who pre-ordered, you should see the book come in the mail within the next ten days....well in time for Christmas.

Image

It turned out quite well in my humble opinion...32 pages added from the 4th edition with new material and updated content. The fifth edition is 288 pages with about 475 photos. Still the same price as the fourth edition, which sold out in 2016. More information right here: https://www.aerovintage.com/final.htm

Just received my copy, not only are there the usual updates, but also a new chapter on new build projects.

Great work, easily the best work of its type.

I got mine over the weekend, it was shipped in a padded envelope with plastic around the book itself.
Looks like some good reading in the future.
thanks Scott!
