The perfect guide for spotters and enthusiasts interested in fighters, bombers, transports, tankers and other military aeroplanes. Contains 3-view silhouettes, colour photographs, dimensions, technical specifications and a potted history of those aircraft most likely to be seen in the skies and at airfields. Other helpful details are included to make aircraft identification more certain.

The contents are arranged in alphabetical (by manufacturer) order and the identification of unrecognised aircraft is aided by a coded system of Key Recognition Points. This seems at first sight to be complex and clumsy, but the principles behind it are fundamental to any recognition process and should become much easier with practice.
The range of aircraft described is certainly usefully comprehensive for most spotters and is realistic given the size of the book. This is quite a useful little book!
