;Sopwith Camel КНИГИ ;ВОЕННАЯ ИСТОРИЯ Издательство: KageroСерия: Legends of Aviation 2Автор: Edward Kocent-ZielinskiЯзык: Polish / EnglishГод издания: 2003Количество страниц: 76ISBN: 83-89088-18-5Формат: pdfРазмер: 32,9 mbThis is the second book in the 'Legends of Aviation' series, but the first that I've seen of them. It is in the 9x12 softbound format and consists of 72 pages on high quality, glossy paper. As with all Kagero books it is a combination of Polish and English. While there are some rather odd uses of syntax, it is not something that makes the book unreadablel.As is the norm with Kagero books, it starts out with a first-hand action account of an air battle and then goes into the origin of the design, some background on the engines used, prototypes, initial production and a general layout of the design. These are followed by sections on additional development, flying characteristics and operational use.The operational use takes into account all the theaters of operation in which at least one Camel was present and its use by the RFC, Australians and Americans. There is also a small section on post war use and operations by the Russians and others during the Bolshevik revolution. This is followed by several pages of 1/48 scale drawings and then by several pages of quality color photos of the aircraft on display at the Polish Aviation Museum in Cracow. These images are most useful to the detail modeler as this aircraft is unskinned. Color profiles are on the inside covers and on the back cover, including profiles of the aircraft portrayed on the decal sheet. RAPIDили IFOLDER 0
