Flight International Archives Online
 

So, here's how I've been wasting virtually every free moment of my life since I discovered it on Wednesday:

http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/index.html

Every page of every issue of Flight International up through 2004, a British aerospace trade journal published weekly since 1909, available online for free. So much fascinating stuff, including tons of super-detailed cutaway drawings by Frank Munger, Mike Badrocke, John Marsden, and others. Even found an article from 1935 describing in-depth the building of the Hindenburg!

Speaking of cutaways, Frank Munger's take on the VC10 is probably the most detailed illustration of it's type I've ever seen. Enter "cut-away" and select 1962 as the year to search, and it should be one of the first items to come up.

Amazing find thanx
:up:

Brilliant.:salute:
Its amazing how may of their cutaways crop up again and again in books.

Thanks. :yeah:

You do realise I've got quite a bit on in work this week, and now? Work or aimlessly flicking from article to article, choices choices. :hmmm:

That is purely awesome! :rock:

I've only grabbed 1909 so far, and I'm about to pop! :D

Just noticed something:

Click here if you want to browse by year instead of searching. The search engine is a little awkward to use.

I stumbled upon the 'year by year' accidentally. I looked at something and noticed it off to the side as an option.

Fantastic pictures of the Apollo 8 mission in the 1969 edition!

And now you've doomed us all!

Thanks for sharing :D

Thank you kindly for this find ...

I wish they would do this for other publications, plus too bad they never had a Silent Service magazine.

There's at least the last 3-4 years of back issues lying around at work, I spend enought time already buried in them :D
