CONDITION: The book itself is in near fine condition and comes in near fine dust jacket. More specifically: Boards have no wear rubbing or soiling. Dust jacket has light creasing. . Dust jacket is protected in clear plastic sleeve. Pages are lightly tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Detailing a proud chapter in naval aviation history former PBM pilot Richard Hoffman has written the first comprehensive history of Mariner operations. This versatile seaplane was first deployed in 1941 during the Battle of the Atlantic when it helped sink ten German U-boats. The following year it became a mainstay of the Naval Air Transport Service as the first aircraft to provide a vital link between Hawaii and the South Pacific. In combat Mariners participated in every major offensive campaign from the Marianas to Iwo Jima and Okinawa sinking enemy submarines ships and aircraft. They also served as the main rescue aircraft saving hundreds of airmen and seamen in spectacular open-sea rescue operations. At war's end they were the first aircraft into Tokyo Bay. Yet the Mariner has long been overshadowed by its famous counterpart the PBY Catalina. This book corrects the oversight by recognizing the Mariner not only for its contributions to World War II but also the postwar years when it was involved with the exploration of the Arctic and Antarctic and the Korean War. Hoffman offers dramatic details of PBM fights with Chinese MIGs and patrol and reconnaissance missions. The author also highlights the seaplane's hazardous rescue missions with the Coast Guard and its service with foreign armed forces. Striking photos of Mariners in action accompany the narrative and a list of all PBM casualties is appended. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Aviation; Military & Warfare. ISBN: 1591143756.

‎Challenger Space Shuttle Disaster Presidential Commission Report‎

‎1986. Space and Aviation Presidential Commission on the Space Shuttle Challenger Accident. Report to the President: Report at a Glance. Washington D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office 1986. First edition. Volume I totaling approximately 30 pages which includes the main findings. This abbreviated summary of the Report to the President by the Presidential Commission on the Space Shuttle Challenger Accident offers a concise and accessible overview of the findings surrounding the catastrophic failure of STS-51-L which disintegrated 73 seconds after liftoff on January 28 1986 killing all seven crew members aboard. <br /> <br /> Commonly known as the Rogers Commission Report this document distills the conclusions of a body convened by President Ronald Reagan and chaired by former Secretary of State William P. Rogers with members including astronauts Neil Armstrong and Sally Ride. This "Report at a Glance" was issued for broader circulation and comprehension a key part of the Commission's goal "to document our findings and make recommendations for your consideration." The pamphlet opens with a solemn "In Memoriam" page bearing the official crew portrait of the Challenger astronauts including Commander Francis R. Dick Scobee Pilot Michael J. Smith Mission Specialists Ellison S. Onizuka Judith Resnik and Ronald E. McNair and Payload Specialists Christa McAuliffe and Gregory B. Jarvis. Beneath the image appears a poignant quote from Reagan's televised address: "The future is not free: the story of all human progress is one of a struggle against all odds. It was built by men and women like our seven star voyagers who answered a call beyond duty." A letter from Rogers to President Reagan dated June 6 1986 reaffirms the national pain and resolve: "The nation's task now is to move ahead to return to safe space flight. There could be no more fitting tribute to the Challenger crew than to do so."<br /> <br /> The core of the report identifies a systemic failure in NASA's risk assessment and engineering culture. The immediate cause of the explosion detailed in Chapter IV was "a combustion gas leak through the right Solid Rocket Motor at field joint" attributed to O-ring failure exacerbated by the unusually cold temperatures on launch day. The report states bluntly: "The consensus of the Commission. is that the loss of the Space Shuttle Challenger was caused by a failure in the joint between the two lower segments of the right Solid Rocket Motor." A diagram on the facing page maps acronyms and component systems central to understanding the shuttle's propulsion including ET External Tank LOX Liquid Oxygen and SSME Space Shuttle Main Engine. Findings were unflinching: "Launch site activities. were not considered as direct causes of the accident" yet "weaknesses in NASA's decision-making structure" were. This offering Volume I contains the report which summarizes the main findings and appendices A-D while Volumes II and III contain the rest of the appendices and Volumes IV and V contain hearings of the Presidential Commission. Light foxing to cover small owner's name written on upper right. Interior pages clean and well-preserved. Overall very good condition. unknown‎

‎Early Aviation Engineering: 1920s Handwritten Technical Manuscript on Aircraft Engine Ignition and Electrical Systems‎

‎1920. Early aviation technical manuscript explaining aircraft engine operation ignition systems and electrical wiring during the formative decades of powered flight. Produced in the early 1920s when aviation technology was transitioning from experimental wartime aircraft to increasingly standardized civil and military aeronautical engineering the manuscript documents the mechanical knowledge required to operate and maintain contemporary aircraft engines and electrical systems. The notebook focuses particularly on ignition circuitry engine starting procedures and performance specifications subjects central to the reliability and safety of early aviation machinery. References to the Jaguar engine a widely used aircraft powerplant of the interwar period situate the manuscript within the technical environment of early twentieth century aviation engineering and aircraft maintenance training.<br /> <br /> Manuscript aviation engineering notebook. Fourteen handwritten pages with numerous technical drawings and labeled diagrams explaining aircraft systems. The manuscript includes sections describing "general data" relating to aircraft performance characteristics such as speed and weight along with detailed mechanical illustrations including a "main wiring diagram." Several pages explain engine starting procedures and ignition circuitry. One labeled sequence reads: "Jaguar starting. See that both the engine magnets are switched off and that the throttle is in the slow running position. 2. With gas starter. Connect the gas coupling of the starter to the lead to the distributor of one of the two engine magnets. See that H1 lead switch from gas starter mag to engine mag is switched off. 3. Start the gas starter." Another passage describing a technical diagram states: "The ignition system is a highly developed form of battery coil ignition designed as an integral part of the engine. The general layout comprises a direct current generated gear driven from the engine." The manuscript combines written explanation with hand drawn schematics intended to clarify the layout and function of aircraft electrical and ignition components.<br /> <br /> During the early 1920s aviation expanded rapidly following the technological acceleration of World War I when aircraft design engine power and onboard systems developed at unprecedented speed. Technical manuals and engineering notebooks such as this formed an essential part of the training culture surrounding aircraft mechanics pilots and aeronautical engineers who needed to understand increasingly complex electrical systems ignition mechanisms and engine starting procedures. The attention given to wiring diagrams and ignition circuitry reflects the growing sophistication of aircraft power plants and onboard electrical networks during the interwar period. Surviving manuscript documentation of this kind provides insight into how aviation technology was taught recorded and transmitted during a period when aeronautical engineering was still developing standardized instructional literature. Light handling wear with minor age toning; overall excellent condition. A detailed early technical manuscript documenting the mechanical knowledge underlying inter war aviation technology. unknown‎

‎World War I Military Aviation Photographic Documentation of Early U.S. Army Air Service Pilot Training and Aircraft Operations at Fort Sill Oklahoma 1918‎

‎1918. World War I military aviation. Primary-source photographs documenting early United States military aviation training at Henry Post Airfield Fort Sill Oklahoma during the formative period of the U.S. Army Air Service following its establishment in May 1918. The images record the first generation of American military pilots operating within a rapidly developing aviation program built in response to World War I supporting research into the expansion of U.S. airpower pilot training infrastructure and the integration of aircraft into military operations. The presence of DH-4 two-seat biplane bombers the principal American-built combat aircraft of the war situates the archive within the transition from experimental aviation units to operational military squadrons. A dated caption identifying "October 29 1918 Sergeant Schauble" flying at 3700 feet further anchors the material within the final phase of the war.<br /> <br /> Archive of 26 silver gelatin photographs Fort Sill Oklahoma circa 1917-1918 each measuring approximately 7.25 x 5.25 inches. The archive includes many photos of the biplanes in the air one photo shows several DH-4 bombers soaring in the clouds in a Flying-V formation. A handwritten caption on one image "October 29 1918 Sergeant Schauble " is depicted flying in a DH-4 at 3700 feet as well as going on a "parachute trip". One photo shows a serious plane crash with two DH-4s biplanes nose down in the ground. The pilots are also depicted in hot air balloons. Fort Sill was home to several US Army Balloon Companies during this period which were still primarily used for reconnaissance and directing aerial bombardment during World War I. The photo archive includes many shots of biplanes in the clouds or on runways with pilots in goggles including 4 images of pilots or troops in group shots. Most photos show the planes or balloons in mid air. . Army balloon companies stationed at Fort Sill for reconnaissance and artillery observation. Several images capture aircraft at altitude among cloud formations while others document runway activity and pre-flight staging. Versos of many prints retain remnants of black album paper indicating removal from a compiled photographic album.<br /> <br /> The archive documents the early operational environment of American military aviation at a moment when the United States was rapidly expanding its aerial capabilities following limited prewar development including the Army's first acquisition of aircraft from the Wright brothers in 1909. Henry Post Airfield functioned as a central training site for pilots entering service during World War I and the inclusion of both airplane and balloon units reflects the continued reliance on multiple aerial technologies for reconnaissance and combat support. The photographs provide visual evidence of training practices aircraft deployment and the material conditions of early air service operations during a period of institutional formation. Minor edge wear and surface wear are present with album residue on versos; overall very good condition. A cohesive photographic record of early U.S. military aviation training and aircraft use during World War I. unknown‎

It was named after the bald eagle which was featured prominently on the mission insignia. It flew from Earth to lunar orbit on the command module Columbia and then was flown to the Moon on July 20 1969 by astronaut Neil Armstrong with navigational assistance from Buzz Aldrin. Eagle's landing created Tranquility Base named by Armstrong and Aldrin and first announced upon the module's touchdown. The name of the craft gave rise to the phrase "The Eagle has landed" the words Armstrong said upon Eagle's touchdown."<br /> <br /> The Grumman manuals below have different wrapper colors but the same metal strap binding.<br /> 9 LSG 770-430.
