In any case, here is Part 2, 3, and 4 of my New Aircraft Supplement. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of Part 1 (hmmmmm....); but hopefully, this will help. Here is the address that you can probably find Part 1 which contained an "introductory" paragraph and the first aircraft: the Aero Albatros from Czechoslovakia. This ite is owned by Saul Basgen, another list memeber, and the entire site, though under construction, is very good! http://www.seattleu.edu/~musides/Twilight/temp/ Thank you for your interest; should you have any further problems, just let me know. ~Cbrody LQM New Aircraft Supplement Part 2 For all those interested, I am presenting the second part in my Aircarfat Supplement.
