Folks, Schiffer will be publishing a largish tome on the Boeing XF8B. A large format book with 376 pages promises to be as thorough a treatment as possible! See www.schifferbooks.com

Just an update: I have the book and it is excellent! For gearheads the best part must be the 70 or so pages taken from the maintenance manual. Also the Pilot Manual is reproduced in its entirety! The book e.g. mentions that the R-4360 cools extremely well. The same has been commented by Don Armstrong, F2G project test pilot (see e.g. JFC Report book from Schiffer).
