This latest CD from Aero Research covers a bunch of USAF types, as do the earlier volumes. These are mostly aircraft from the 1970s-1990s, though there are a considerable number from before that period as well. The disc also includes air to air images. The vast majority of images are very well done, though some, for a variety of reasons, are not the quality that one would expect, but included due to historical value. Each entry includes as much pertinent data as was available to AeroResearch. I will add that EC-135P 58-0007 was photographed in Keflavik.

There are 167 image coving 360 Megabytes of disc space. Each entry is listed alphabetically starting with the A-7D and working through to the YA-7F. This includes B-52s, F-4s, 135s of all sorts, RF-4s and a lot of other types such as various C-47s, C-54s, B-66s and some rarities such as a very nice SB-17G.  I was particularly interested in the A-7D selection that included several experimental camouflage schemes.

It is another interesting disc that has a lot of very nice aircraft on it. One that every aviation enthusiast will enjoy.
