About This Item
Philedition, 2008. New book, 38 pages, 37 B&W photos, 15 colour profiles. This almost forgotten biplane fighter was the first of the Grumman built carrier fighters, its progeny would include the Wildcat, Hellcat, Bearcat, Tigercat, the Panther and Cougar and lead finally to the F14 Tomcat. As such it should be regarded as a key aircraft also for being the first USN fighter with a retractable undercarriage. A register covering the service histories or each of the twenty-seven aircraft built (BuNos 9350-9376) and contains details of crashes or final flights. The Appenices contain a Roll of Honour naming the seven aircrew who lost their lives flying the type. This book is very richly illustrated, with thirty-seven b/w photographs - ten of which show close-up airframe details. Nine high-quality colour profiles by Malcolm Laird - as well as colour views of typical wing markings and a page showing VF-5B section colours as painted on cowling rings will also please modellers.. Soft Cover. As New. Illus. by Laird, Malcolm. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
