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. Last edited by Subnuts; 06-26-12 at 07:10 PM. Reason: better search suggestion |

Thanks.
 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.

That is purely awesome!
 I've only grabbed 1909 so far, and I'm about to pop!

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.

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.
