Book Description
From the eccentric Fairey Battle to the lethal-looking CF-18, from modern airliners that have no defects (and no character) to the classic North Star (which had both), here is the ultimate line-up of the aircraft that have served Canadians in the last century. With over one hundred photographs of fifty historic planes, Wings Across Canada is a retrospective of Canada’s aeronautical technology. This book does not compare the planes, nor claim that all are "classics" in the traditional sense of the word. Instead, it is a celebration of a love affair with aircraft that all served a purpose in their own time.

Book Description
Bringing together leading researchers on Canadian air power, On the Wings of War and Peace captures the history of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) during the first decades of the Cold War – a period which marked the zenith of air force accomplishments in peacetime Canada. The volume covers topics that go beyond straightforward flying operations, examining policies that drove operational needs and capabilities and the personnel, technical, and logistical functions that made those operations possible. With contributions written by former RCAF members who have both expert and personal knowledge of their topics, On the Wings of War and Peace brings new perspectives to the RCAF’s role in shaping the modern Canadian nation.

Book Description
Though the interior of Irian Jaya, now called Papua, the Indonesian half of the Island of New Guinea, is not the end of the earth, it is said that "you can see it from here!" Ron and Mikel Ann Pritz relate some amazing missionary adventures working alongside the missionaries and national church leaders using aviation, helicopters, and light Cessna aircraft to reach the remarkably remote, primitive, and often hostile native tribes. Walk with the Pritzes as they prepare for the field and adjust to life in Indonesia. Live the adventures of trusting God for safety and protection from the ever-present danger of weather, terrain, and the challenging flying environment of New Guinea. Thrill with the advance of the gospel as whole tribes turn from animism and turn to the one true God. Grieve with the loss of dedicated young men and women who have sacrificed themselves in the pursuit of tribe upon tribe, turning to trusting God and putting their faith in Jesus Christ. Rejoice in the victories that come as new tribes come to Jesus. Join Ron and Mikel Ann and their two sons, Andy and Kevin, as they have the privilege of witnessing the transformation of primitive peoples into dedicated followers of Christ. Watch tribe after tribe move away from the hopelessness of their pagan roots to new life and new hope in the Lord Jesus.

Book Description
There are many myths and legends surrounding the advanced German aeronautical technology of the Second World War. There are also facts and proven events. Yet within these stories and behind these facts lie conspiracy theories, mistaken assumptions and denials that seem to contradict the evidence. So what really happened? How far ahead were the German scientists? And, of even greater interest, why and how???There have been other books about advanced German wartime aeronautics, yet few authors have fully examined the detail of the designs and their relevance to the fighter and bomber legends of the 1950s and '60s, let alone the current crop of military and civil all-wing or blended-wing aircraft. This book charts the story from it origins, through current-day innovations and beyond, into the all-wing future of tomorrow.

Book Description
The great civilization of India, which is known as Hindu culture, has contributed a lot in the field of science. This shows that they never promoted superstition, nor did the people remain undeveloped and ignorant. Aeronautical science in the twenty-first century is difficult and complex. In manufacturing an aircraft, each and every part of the aircraft has to be carefully tested and evaluated. Material selection, aerofoil selection, weight of the aircraft, thrust required etc. These factors have an impact in the manufacturing of aircraft. Many things were practiced repeatedly in Indian ancient aviation. They have told the material selection making vimana, the instruments used in vimana, the technique of making instruments, the weapons of the enemy vimana, the electric power that runs the vimana, the electric wire and the cover of the wire. This is surprising. I think we should try to study the Indian ancient culture once again. Maybe we can learn something from this. We may not be able to understand those techniques but we can definitely get new ideas to make things easier.
