Beginning in 2014, I have produced a series of booklets on aviation topics, beginning with the visit to Australia of French aviator Maurice Guillaux in 1914. The booklets generally deal with famous flights of the period and later tribute flights eg centenary celebrations. Almost all the books have been published officially with ISBN numbers;
The A5 booklets can be printed on a colour printer that can do duplex printing, (print on both sides of the page), on A4 landscape paper, with binding on short side. Most of this material is in the archive files.and can be copied directly,
All the mateial is searchable on the whole-site search files, eg .and individual files can be searched with cttrl-f
