tsculton Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 The Legacy Hornet book is coming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Yes, the Legacy Hornet book is coming. It covers all the stuff you'd expect--carrier ops, work-ups, squadrons, air-airs, and a bazillion pics for us model geeks (FULL cockpit coverage of all versions (A/B/C/D), the ATARS package of the USMC, and the rest of the jet that needs covered. It also fully covers the export versions of the jet like Canadian, Spanish, Swiss, Finnish, and Malaysian aircraft. It's basically done. I'm just waiting for the best time to print it. I want to get one more project printed first, but the Legacy Hornet book should be at the printers by about June. Thanks! Jake Edited December 14, 2011 by jmel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticWeapons Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Jake, Are you including Blue Angels specific cockpit modifications too? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Space Tiger Hobbes Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Do you plan to re-print sold out back issues? I filled out the holes in my collection from Sprue Bros. The prices people are asking for these books and similar pubs are nuts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

loftycomfort Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Jake, Have you thought about selling posters? Better yet, limited release, numbered posters. Just a thought. Terry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Jake, Have you thought about selling posters? Better yet, limited release, numbered posters. Just a thought. Terry You can order them already. I just need to find time to keep updating the page to add more. Nearly any image of mine can be made into a 16 x 24 or larger image. I use a printer in Minnesota that does outstanding work. I have around 10 on my walls here at home and send them to the squadrons as gifts for hosting me. http://www.reidairpublishing.com/prints.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 A F-14 book would be well recieved. Shame the Navy got rid of it. Love the looks of that airplane. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
