Telboy1999 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Folks, SWMBO has asked me what I want for a big birthday coming up and it would appear that (since I've been a good boy) my wish for a Tamiya 1/32 F-16 will come true this year. Whoopee-doo! Any recommendations for a good reference book for this wonderful warplane, one with loads of good pics please? Many thanks in advance, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 The best reference books on the F-16 are Uncovering the F-16 by Danny Coremans (DACO Productions) The Modern Viper Guide by Jake Melampy F-16 Fighting Falcon Viper under the skin by Ioannis Lekkas and Ilias Gkonis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spruecutter96 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I can personally vouch for the third book on Stephen's list. It is an incredibly detailed book, with images of EVERYTHING you could possibly want to see on Greek (Block 52, I think) Vipers. At around 20 quids, it a bit of a bargain. The other books I only know by their reputation - but they are supposed to be the absolute pinnacle of F-16 reference works. Good luck with the build! Cheers. Chris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabat Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Another vote for either the Jake Melampy or Danny Coreman's books. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
