In the Book

The book is a paperback with glossy pages making for great resolution of its photographs. There are color pages depicting various markings of different squadrons the jet served with in the Italian Air Force. This is my kind of book - lots of pictures, both color and black and white.

The modelers section looks at the Airfix and Italeri kits with great color photographs of the completed models.

Summary

For anyone building the jets listed in the book, this would be a high recommendation for your aircraft documentation. The color photographs are especially good.

I want to thank Aviation Collectables and IPMS/USA for the opportunity to read and review the book.
