The first virtually all-jet war, the conflict in Korea saw F-86 Sabres of the USAF take on MiG-15s of the North Korean and Chinese air forces. Although the Allied pilots were initially taken aback by the ability of the communist fighter in combat, sound training and skilful leadership soon enabled Sabre pilots to dominate the dogfights over the Yalu River. In all 39 F-86 pilots achieved ace status, and a number of these are profiled in this volume, as are notable pilots from the US Navy, Marine Corps and Royal Navy and, for the first time, the handful of MiG-15 aces.Ill, p.64.non-fictionThe first virtually all-jet war, the conflict in Korea saw F-86 Sabres of the USAF take on MiG-15s of the North Korean and Chinese air forces.

Monbulk RSL Sub BranchAtlantic Books, Spitfire : the biography, 2006
It is difficult to overestimate the excitement that accompanied the birth of the Spitfire. An aircraft imbued with balletic grace and extraordinary versatility, it was powered by a piston engine and a propeller, yet came tantalisingly close to breaking the sound barrier. First flown in 1936, the Spitfire soon came to symbolize Britain's defiance of Nazi Germany in the summer of 1940. Flown by pilots of many nations, it saw service as far afield as Australia and the Soviet Union.

The central thesis of this book is that the major failing of native title, as communal, inalienable and partial title, is that is does not represent a sound instrument for significantly improving the conditions and prospects of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. The costs involved to the Australian community are not balanced by commensurate benefits to indigenous Australians.i-iv; 167 P.; index; bib.; footnotes; 21 cm.The central thesis of this book is that the major failing of native title, as communal, inalienable and partial title, is that is does not represent a sound instrument for significantly improving the conditions and prospects of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians.
