I've posted before on my books being released in February. This is the latest cover for the F-82 Twin Mustang book that has b/w 120 photos.

Thanks for using the Kindle, helps keep me employed! (For those that don't know, I run the prototyping lab for the company that developed the kindle display) :drink3:

Alan, how many books does this make for you now? I know I own two or three and there seems to be quite a few more!

I use Kindle as I read them on the road and have no more room for real books right now...

I have some original 8 mm films taken by a USAF veteran showing the black painted F-82G's taking off on the first day of the Korean War! Should find them somewhere.
