The Aviation Historian Magazine | No 1
Looking for something different from the mainstream aviation magazines? You’ve found it in this debut issue of brand-new quarterly The Aviation Historian. Issue No 1 is packed with material you simply will not find elsewhere. Read about Playboy tycoon Hugh Hefner's customised private DC-9 airliner; see photographs of Spitfires in Luftwaffe markings and find out why and where; discover the detailed story of how RAF Lightning jets attempted to intercept high-flying USAF U-2 spyplanes in 1962; learn how Papa Smurf saved the T-45 Goshawk jet trainer; and how a furrow was ploughed across the deserts of the Middle East in the 1920s for pilots to follow so they didn’t get lost. All these stories and many more are told by respected authors, and illustrated with glorious archive photographs and specially-commissioned artwork.
