AEHS Convention Notice
Due to poor attendance, which limits the ability of the AEHS to control costs, as well as difficulty in finding novel aircraft-engine related destinations, there will be no more annual AEHS Conventions.
New Book by AEHS Member Bill Pearce
AEHS Member William Pearce has published a new book on Studebaker Aircraft Engines which includes a couple of chapters on the Studebaker XH-9350. One of these, Chapter 4, "XH-9350 in Context", is available for free to AEHS members. Please see:
