Hi all – I thought I would just check in here and post this - not sure if anyone would be interested and hope it is ok

I have a few dozen Windsock data file booklets That I would like to try and find a new home for with someone who would appreciate them

I am wondering if any of you are local to my area – I am in Vancouver British Columbia - shipping might be a headache these days to other areas?

I have no idea if they are of interest or sought after or what their value might be?
Is it safe to assume that OBD doesn’t need some of this reference material as a donate - do the devs have access to everything they need?

I was also thinking I might post these on the Facebook group airplanes and aces of world war one too - but first thought I would check in with the woff crew

If anyone has some advice or interest please let me know – I took a few photos of them and will try and remember how to post pictures here if it isn’t too much of a hassle

Would prefer to get rid of them as a group – and honestly with the current state of affairs would help to get a wee bit of money for them in some type of a fair exchange but one where the other party feels like they’ve got a super Duper deal too smile

Cheers Ron

Hi Ron,

I would be interested in seeing the list of what you're offering and would most certainly send you some money for them if I were to take them. Thank you for offering them to us here first. smile2

Cheers!

Lou

got anything on the Albatros D.I/D.II? I'm presently reworking the skins on those. I could use them if you have them.

Thanks for offering!

I have literally all the Data Files, (174) and I can tell that they are worth EVERY penny.

thanks guys

ok trying to add pictures ...

i received all of these a few years back in a large package trade deal on other books etc

i have enjoyed them - they are great - but need to start passing things along - i see some of them have various price tags on them (maybe from a shop back in the day? or someone's wishful thinking?)

anyhow - Raf Lou, you are first up - have a look and let me know if you are still interested - and if you want pm me with what you think a fair offer would be

you can see i did not photo every cover but just the issue numbers - hopefully there is a master list somewhere ... or i can take photos of all the covers so you see all the planes?

some of the books are two volume editions etc, that appear newer than the others

wow - great info and pictures ... i better stop flipping through them or i will start thinking i should shove them back in the closet lol

Ov - there are a few books on the albs - let me see what Lou is thinking - and then we can see how best to get some info, if useful to you, over as well

cheers, Ron

all in the name of helping with wonderful WOFF and its crew smile

regards, Ron
