From the Introduction: "It has been over twenty years since the end of World War II in the Pacific, and the few Japanese aircraft that remain in museums throughout the world mutely testify to the colorful craft that once won, patrolled and defended an empire. Unfortunately for the historian and model builder, all too many of the surviving aircraft appear in colors and markings that are no loonger original and are, in fact, very misleading. Published photographs of these captive craft further perpetuate these marking myths, and the need existed for an authoritative booklet to guide serious students and hobbiests in the proper markings and colors of the aircraft of Japan, Some of the notes for this booklet appeared in 'Air Progress' and others in 'RAF Flying Review,' however, these original notes have been extensively expanded since their first publication and a wealth of new photographs have been added to the collection. All of the notes and photographs are designed to give the reader, artist and modeller an opportunity to add color and heraldic significance, as well as historical form and substance, to the colorful Army, Navy and Civil aircraft of Japan." Inside covers illustrated with markings in full color. Illustrated throughout with black and white photographs. Very fine copy.

The Douglas A-4 Skyhawk is a single-seat subsonic carrier-capable light attack aircraft developed for the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps in the early 1950s. The delta-winged, single turbojet engine Skyhawk was designed and produced by Douglas Aircraft Company, and later by McDonnell Douglas. It was originally designated A4D under the U.S. Navy's pre-1962 designation system. The Skyhawk is a relatively lightweight aircraft, with a maximum takeoff weight of 24,500 pounds (11,100 kg), and has a top speed of 670 miles per hour (1,080 km/h). The aircraft's five hardpoints support a variety of missiles, bombs, and other munitions. It is capable of carrying a bomb load equivalent to that of a World War II-era Boeing B-17 bomber, and can deliver nuclear weapons using a low-altitude bombing system and a "loft" delivery technique. The A-4 was originally powered by the Wright J65 turbojet engine; from the A-4E onwards, the Pratt & Whitney J52 engine was used. The Douglas A-4 Skyhawk is a very versatile light attack-bomber that has been a U.S. Navy first-line aircraft for many years. Despite its relatively small size, it is able to carry a large and varied assortment of aerial weapons. In the early 1950s some of the aircraft design group at the Douglas Aircraft Company became concerned by the trend toward increasing complexity and weight in combat aircraft. The group, led by Ed Heinemann, whose design philosophy was to "Simplicate and Add Lightness," proposed a new attack plane with a gross weight of about half the official specification weight of 30,000 lb. The A4D-1 was the first production version of the Skyhawk. The first A4D-1 (BuNo 137813) took off on its first flight on August 14, 1954, only two months after the first flight of the prototype XA4D-1. A total of 165 A4D-1s were built, the last one being delivered in 1957. The A4D-1 was much the same as the XA4D-1, but differed from the XA4D-1 in having a "sugar scoop"-shaped jet tailpipe fairing., and was fitted with an arrester hook. All three weapons pylons were fitted, one underneath the fuselage centerline and one underneath each wing just outboard of the main landing gear. Up to 5000 pounds of ordinance could be carried on the three underwing pylons. Alternatively, up to three drop tanks could be carried, with a combined capacity of 800 gallons. A large blade antenna for the UHF radio was installed immediately aft of the cockpit. The frameless windshield of the XA4D-1 was replaced by a framed windscreen. An internal armament of two 20-mm Colt Mk 12 cannon was fitted, one gun in each wing root, with 100 rounds per gun. The aircraft did not carry any radar, the nose cone being filled with avionics equipment. The A4D-1 was powered by the 7700 lb.s.t Wright J65-W-4 or W-4B turbojet. The next model of.

With over 250 photo illustrations, text illustrations, diagrams, maps. All issues with self-printed softcovers, bound together in original Lockheed Corporation adjustable blue & silver foil softcovers, copper lettering stamped on front cover, yapp edges (very slight uniform toning), NF set, from the library of David H. Kenyon (1918-2011) former Lockheed engineer & military sales manager, as well as aviation consultant for Pan American, TWA, and the Venezuelan Airlines, and later President of the Southern California Wing of the OX5 Aviation Pioneers. First editions of these unusually rare original printings of the in-house history magazine published by the Lockheed Public Relations office at the end of 1957 into 1958. This work was published in chapters, each with separate heading, and intended to stand alone, so subscribers and Lockheed employees could choose to collect them all, or just some. Back issues were available for only a limited time in 1958, as was the company printed softcover post-binder, and additional 4 page introduction present here. These magazines drew from a number of Lockheed archive scrapbooks, company factory photographs, with contributions from Robert & Courtlandt Gross, Cyril Chapellet, Carl Squier, Allan Lockheed, Walter Varney, John K. Northrop, all providing an excellent and informative history of Lockheed aviation through the first six decades of the 20th century. Worldcat locates 1 complete collection (Hagley -- several institutions hold assorted chapters, the 1980 Arno reprint, or the later continuation of the history under the same title).

Three parts in one vol. 4to. 68 pp; 13 leaves, typescript on onion-skin paper; [14 pp (unpaginated).], in ink manuscript on ruled paper. With 16 cyanotype blueprint leaves of hydrogen gas plants, water bags, equipment, numerous tables, diagrams, 2 original linen-backed silver gelatin photo plates on linen hinges. Black-ribbed cloth split-pin post binder as issued, gilt lettering & Goodyear winged logo on front cover, marbled pastedowns (minor soiling to edgewear, fraying, minor splitting to cloth at spine, minor bumping to corners), still a VG- exemplar, with many annotations, from the library of Arthur Sewell (1880-1973), longtime specialist with Goodyear Tire & Rubber, instructor at the Airship Training School during World War I, which also specialized in training U.S. Navy and U.S. Army ground crews for blimps, balloons, and dirigibles, and Lt. Steven B.[aker] Hagadorn (1920-2007) who was serving during the Korean War at the U.S. Naval Air Station, Ocean City, New Jersey in 1950-1954. First edition, of this exceedingly scarce manual written to train and educate Navy Balloonists before the U.S. entered World War I, after the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company secured a contract to train 20 men in free ballooning in May, 1917. This work describes the free balloon, how to construct and use various parts of the balloon, details the physical properties of gases used for lift, the physics behind the gases and atmosphere, preparations for flight, the proper methods of handling the balloon in the air, as well as on the ground, as well as advising the balloonist, to exercise care in using gasoline to remove oil from balloon fabrics by avoiding the seams because it will cause the seam to deteriorate. The illustrations and photos at the end show a balloon being laid out for inflation, inflated, setting the sandbags, rigging, and ascension of the balloon. The Jan. 28, 1918 typescript by Lieut. Comm. Teed specifically outlines the technical advantages, and uses of employing hydrogen in the free balloons, with specific equations and calculations for volume, lift, and more. Goodyear had established its Aeronautics Department in 1910 to market rubber impregnated fabrics and coatings for airplanes and lighter-than-air craft, and began buildings its first balloons in 1912. In 1916, Goodyear bought 720 acres of land southeast of Akron to serve as their flying school and manufacturing site. Around the same time they began building their first airship in March, 1917, they were also negotiating for a contract with the government to train balloonists for the Navy. Of particular interest in this work are the presence of the original manuscript "Free Balloon Log Sheets" documenting free flights starting in Winfoot Lake, OH, and landing in East Lewistown, Homeworth, Youngstown, & Minerva, OH; Sagerstown & Hallston, PA, Columbia Station. Several of the sheets note weather conditions, flight altitudes, how they landed, and manuscript observations taken during the flights. Roth (1885-1950), was a noted sport balloonist before and after World War I up through the 1930s, was a balloon instructor during World War I for Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., and also was a pilot in the U.S. National Balloon race in 1930. Original editions of this early Goodyear aviation work are quite scarce. No copies in Worldcat for the First Edition, several located for the 77 pp. 2nd edition (varying number of blueprints, plans); No copies located of Typescript MS by Teed, or printed version of Lift of Hydrogen Technical Note No. 21; See Hamlen, First Lighter-than-air Class at Akron; Goodyear Blimp History.

Softcover. Condición: Near Fine. Oblong octavo, measuring approximately 8" x 5". [8]ff., mimeographed rectos only. Side-stapled self-covers. Cover with decorative borders of colons and asterisks, and stamped "ATC Briefing Office, Hamilton Field, California." Wartime paper is lightly and evenly toned, faint horizontal crease, and a bit of wear and creasing on the foredge corners, a just about near fine copy of an ephemeral survivor. A no-nonsense, mimeographed handbook of procedures for "ditching" a Douglas C-54 Skymaster while it is in use as a passenger plane or flying hospital. Instructions are given for the pilot, copilot, navigator, radio operator, flight traffic clerk, flight nurse, and medical technician. Introduced in 1942, the C-54 saw action in both World War II and the Korean War, but the paper and print quality would seem to suggest a World War II publication. A nice copy of a fragile pamphlet. We have been unable to locate another copy.
