MaceUK33 Dirk Diggler's stuntman Hotshot Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 8839 Loc: Darlington, UK	In Japanese, which I don't speak, but some really nice photos in its 85 pages. 1500 Yen which is about £12. Not many books on the A-10 around. http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/switch-langua...;language=en_JP _________________________ Antec 902 \| MSI GTX 570 OC Twin FrozR 3 1280MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society.

William L. Smallwood's Warthog: Flying the A-10 in the Gulf War is a great book, too. Precious few photos but great stories, directly from the mouths of the Hog drivers themselves. _________________________ Shoot to Kill. Play to Have Fun. SimHQ's Forum Use Agreement

MaceUK33 Dirk Diggler's stuntman Hotshot Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 8839 Loc: Darlington, UK	I'd seen the first one before and its crazy price (EDIT: just found it online for £32 http://www.foyles.co.uk/item/History-Pol...y-9780979506420 ) and I have the second one twice now, once in print and on my kindle.

Wonder what it would cost for a friendly North 'merican to send a copy or two your way... [edit: just checked the US prices: apparently the Melampy book is no longer in stock and the used copies are being sold for ridiculous prices. I think I bought mine for $30 USD about a year ago, and the used copies are going for $200. Something just ain't right here. On a completely unrelated note, anybody want to buy a book? ] Edited by EinsteinEP (02/04/12 08:10 PM) _________________________ Shoot to Kill. Play to Have Fun. SimHQ's Forum Use Agreement
