Famous Airplanes of the World [second series] The second (black covers) series of Famous Airplanes of the World began again at Number 1 in 1986, and is still being issued. The same page size as the first (blue covers) series was retained, but with more pages and more colour illustrations. Each edition focuses on a specific aircraft type, or family of aircraft, and provides a narrative development history of the type (and sub-types) and technical data tables. Also included is a chapter on the types' operational/service use and a description of the camouflage and markings worn (with tone profile drawings). The text is entirely in Japanese, except for English chapter headings. Most of the content comprises b+w and colour photographs (usually reproduced full page or half-page), scale line drawings, cut-away drawings, cockpit diagrams, close-up detail drawings and colour profiles. As the release dates have become more irregular in the last few years, the publishing date is no longer a prominent feature of the cover. The first series is listed separately. Two Special Editions of the second series are listed below. Publisher: Bunrin-Do Co Ltd, Japan Language: Japanese 88 pages (+ covers), Softback, B5 size, b+w/col photos, colour drawings, line drawings. Some of these titles are still available from HobbyLink Japan Quick jump: 1 20 40 60 80 100 120 140
