Eyes of the RAF
Author: Roy Conyers Nesbit
Publisher: Salamander Books
ISBN: 9781858333892
Category : Aerial reconnaissance, British
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
Photo-reconnaissance has come a long way from its faltering beginnings over the trenches of the Western Front during World War I, when unwieldy plate cameras were held over the cockpit sides of RFC BE2a biplanes. By the close of World War II, designated PR Spitfires could photograph Germany by day, while Mosquitoes could photograph by day or night with considerable success from heights of up to 36,000 feet. Following ten years of incredible advances in digital, optical and mechanical technology, the mid-1990s saw the RAF's Tornado GR1As using video-tape for PR, with a data link to relay pictures direct to interpreters on the ground, thus doing away altogether with wet film.

Looking Down the Corridors
Author: Kevin Wright
Publisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0750964588
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Between 1945 and 1990 the Western Allies mounted some of the most audacious and successful intelligence collection operations of the Cold War. Conducted in great secrecy, aircrews flew specially modified transport and training aircraft along the Berlin Air Corridors and Control Zone to gather intelligence on Soviet and East German military targets in the German Democratic Republic and around Berlin. The Air Corridors comprised three regulated airways for civil and military air traffic that connected West Berlin to West Germany. Operating under the guise of innocent transport and training flights, the pilots used their right of access to gather huge amounts of imagery for forty-five years. They also provided the western intelligence community with unique knowledge of the organisation and equipment used by Warsaw Pact forces. For the first time, using recently declassified materials and extensive interviews with those involved, Looking Down the Corridors provides a detailed account and analysis of these operations and their unique contribution to the Cold War.

Embrace the Fire: Varick Ta Farg, a half-breed vampire, has received an innate call from his soul to mate with sassy Angelica Dark. But the gods are tampering with his fate, each with their own agenda. Can he cope with the dangerous mating ritual and protect the female he is falling in love with?
