The Aviation Historian 49

New on the shelves of Aviation Megastore.; The Aviation Historian full of timeless aviation history!

Please note that from issue 50 it will become an annualy publication. TAH have decided  they will change from quarterly frequency and instead publish a single larger TAH Annual, along with special issues and books. TAH had some of these projects in the pipeline for years, but as a tiny fourperson team they have not had the capacity to bring them to fruition alongside the quarterly.

Of course we will also carry these special issues and books

In issue 49: 

US Navy airships, employed to hunt U-boats during WW2, are the cover subject for our 49th quarterly issue — these Goodyear blimps, with their ability to loiter for long periods at low speed, were ideal for the anti-submarine role.

Elsewhere in TAH49: Chris Gibson and Ian Bott take a detailed look at the mighty Molins Gun, as fitted to the “Tsetse” version of the de Havilland Mosquito;

We examine a little-known Argentinian attempt at a round-the-world flight in the 1920s; and we explore a Bell 47 helicopter fatal crash in Australia which cast a long shadow.

Also: Sweden’s “Super Spitfire” project; post-WW2 British military aircraft procurement headaches; the Women’s Junior Air Corps; the history of Trans-Canada Air Lines; the conclusion of our history of the B-58 Hustler’s evaluation as a potential tactical bomber in Vietnam; and test-flying the Erco Ercoupe and Newbury Eon at RAE Farnborough. All this — and much more — awaits you in Issue 49 of The Aviation Historian.

Please note, We will not have older issues on stock but we can order them for you.
