Notes: CD-ROM, Catalogue # 1051

This latest CD from Aero Research continues with their fine series on USN/USMC aircraft over the years. What makes this one special is that there are a lot of images from 40, 50 years back and not all that many that are more modern. While there are the usual AV-8A and F-14 images, there are also quite a large number of F9F and F11F images as well as some great F-5 and T-38 shots. Helo fans are not left out as the disc includes nice H-3 and H-60 images as well.  Aside from a nice batch of C-1s, the disc is pretty much devoid of transport types, leaving more room for other aircraft.

You get the usual ramp shots with the vast majority of them crisp and clear. There are also some tanked at air shows and some in flight images as well as a few special schemes including a Bicentennial T-38 that I'd not seen before, and other surprises. 

There are 158 images covering 281 megabytes of disc space. Each image has all the information about the aircraft including date and place photographed if it was known. You will find that this disc has the aircraft listed by aircraft type.

Like the other products of Aero Research, this one is a disc of eye candy that will be appreciated by modelers and fans of the aircraft alike.
