NDB16 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Happy to announce two new books in our Duke Hawkins series. Just 6 year after we started this adventure (we're still just two guys that enjoy making books after hours); we're already at 37 books published! The first new book is a 180 page book on the A-10 A/C Thunderbolt II. It is filled to the rim with photos, showing every detail of the A-10: fuselage, wings, landing gear, bays, engines, cockpit, well everything. The book also includes a 22-page maintenance chapter and a lot of impressive action photos! Peter Anthoni, a friend of mine, took the trip to Davis-Monthan AFB to get every last detail of the jet. This book was supposed to be just 116 pages, but this adventure turned into 180 pages! Useful for detailing those 1/32 scale Trumpeter kits! Or the Academy 1/48 scale kits, which are pretty impressive. This our 30th in the series ! Here's the cover: The second new book is a 116 page book on the Saab 35 Draken. I've always liked this iconic jet with its fantastic wing profile and wanted to do a book about it. I've still got some 1/48 scale Hasegawa kits around, which were a good guide to see where details could be added, so this focussed our attention for photos. This book is filled with photos from the Drakens of the Swedish Air Force Historic Flight and Danish Team Karup for the details, but also with action photos of when the jet was still operational in Sweden, Denmark, Austria and Finland. Every detail is included and the cockpit chapter is extensive with photos of operational and restored aircraft, both single and two-seat versions. It is the 31st book in the series. These books should be available from your favorite hobby or book shop soon! Nic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always dreamed of learning to fly, but, unfortunately, I could not overcome my psychological barriers. Despite my great desire, I constantly experience severe anxiety and nervousness associated with flying. While studying at university, I was looking for good psychology research topics, then I remembered myself and used https://papersowl.com/blog/psychology-research-paper-topics for this. I even turned to a psychologist, but have not yet been able to cope with this problem. Therefore, I decided to direct my efforts to another area and am now studying to become a lawyer. Although I enjoy reading about airplanes and aviation, I realized that my passion for these topics could remain within the realm of a hobby. This of course upsets me, but not everyone is cut out to be a pilot. These books should be available from your favorite hobby or book shop soon! Nic I read with great interest the books in the Duke Hawkins series and many others. I always wanted to take the helm, but it wasn’t my destiny.
