The Wright Brothers - Book

The #1   New York Times   bestseller from David McCullough, two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize—the dramatic story-behind-the-story about the courageous brothers who taught the world how to fly—Wilbur and Orville Wright. On a winter day in 1903, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, two brothers—bicycle mechanics from Dayton, Ohio—changed history. But it would take the world some time to believe that the age of flight had begun, with the first powered machine carrying a pilot.

Fate Is the Hunter: A Pilot's Memoir - Book
SIM473
Ernest K. Gann’s classic pilot's memoir is an up-close and thrilling account of the treacherous early days of commercial aviation. “Few writers have ever drawn readers so intimately into the shielded sanctum of the cockpit, and it is hear that Mr. Gann is truly the artist” ( The New York Times Book Review ). “A splendid and many-faceted personal memoir that is not only one man’s story but the story, in essence, of all men who fly” ( Chicago Tribune ). In his inimitable style, Gann brings you right into the cockpit, recounting both the triumphs and terrors of pilots who flew when flying was anything but routine.

National Geographic Moon (Stargazer folded) - Map
NGM052
• Waterproof • Tear-Resistant • Stargazer Map and Guide The Moon's mystique for ancient cultures might have lain in its unchanging aspect as it traversed the celestial sphere. The same lunar face permanently looks down on Earth because of tidal locking. Thus we use the terms "Near Side" to describe the side always facing the Earth and "Far Side" to describe the side that had been hidden from humanity until the space age. The Moon Stargazer Map and Guide  includes detailed maps of the Near and Far Side and helpful tips on Moongazing from Earth. Each feature is listed in a detailed index to help easily locate them across the...

• Waterproof • Tear-Resistant • Stargazer Map and Guide The name Solar System is derived from "Sol" or sun, and describes our planetary system orbiting our sun. Nearest the sun are the four terrestrial planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

Uranus and Neptune appear to have much larger solid cores relative to their size under their...

SR-71 Blackbird: Lockheed's Ultimate Spy Plane - Book - Paracay
SR-71 Blackbird: Lockheed's Ultimate Spy Plane - Book
SPC079
As of 2023, the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is the fastest manned jet aircraft ever produced. It set the record in 1976 and has been retired since the late 1990s. With its unrivaled speed and stunning appearance, the Blackbird has maintained an almost supernatural mystique to this day. The type entered service in the 1960s as a high-altitude (and obviously extremely high speed) military reconnaissance aircraft. Just 32 were built, nearly half of which were written off in accidents. Nearly 300 images are packed into this latest entry in the Legends of Warfare series. This is a great gift for your favorite modeler, pilot, or aspiring pilot.

Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk: An Illustrated History of the Stealth Fighter - Book
SPC080
The F-117 was probably the most secret aircraft ever developed. The Stealth technology upon which the plane was based made it unique in its appearance. With its stark black appearence and wispy configuration, the plane was a strange departure from the sleek supersonic fighters of the period. This new book covers the technical and operational aspects of the Nighthawk from its initial use over Panama through its shining moment during Operational Desert Storm. Bill Holder and Mike Wallace are also the authors of Mc Donnell-Douglas F-15 Eagle: A Photo Chronicle. Bill Holder is also co-author, with Steve Markman, of One-of-A-Kind Research...
