This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Zenith Press recently (within the last few years) came out with a very well made set of technical aircraft books (in the Haynes Owner's Workshop Manual series) providing an insight into owning, restoring, servicing, and flying unique historic aircraft. So far I have acquired the book on the B-17 Flying Fortress and the DC-3 Dakota, and am absolutely impressed. I highly recommend the books to anyone interested in aviation or engineering, and they can easily be appreciated by the generous use of pictures and diagrams.
Does anyone know if Zenith Press intends to release a book in this series on the Douglas A-26 Invader? Being one of the most significant and impressive radial engined attack bombers of the warbird realm, I believe this aircraft would be the subject of a great owner's workshop manual.

Here is a link to see the cover and description of the Owner's Workshop Manual for the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress in this series.
