B-17 in Blue: The Flying Fortress in U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard Service is available once again, this time as an E-book download for the princely sum of $10.00.

This book was published in 1993 and was out of print about a decade ago. I decided to have it scanned and am now offering it as an e-book. It comes as a downloadable .pdf file. It's encrypted to provide a bit of protection from unauthorized copying and distribution...if you order the book you get a password to open the file. No changes or updates to the book, but the history of the PB-1W and PB-1G has not changed... Some good stuff in the book.

Link to the page here: https://www.aerovintage.com/product/b-17-in-blue/

(I think all the bugs are worked out...this is new territory for me. Please let me know if it 'aint so.)

Thanks, Scott. I got mine. It went pretty smoothly, except that I confused the link back to the book page with the download link. All good.

Great...thanks for that feedback. Webstores can be a bit cantankerous.

Hope you enjoy B-17 In Blue.

Scott,

Any chance of Final Cut going to PDF?

TIA

Re: Final Cut going to .pdf

Thanks for asking. At this point, not in the foreseeable future. When the stock of hard copies runs out, I may reconsider.

Re: both the Crowood A-26 and A-20 books: both out of print for a long time.

I've considered issuing both as second editions as eBooks but that is quite a project so it may happen...but not real soon.
