TIME TAKES
IT’S TOLL
“Time Takes It’s Toll” is not
just another Aviation photo
book. Most books show shiny
refurbished examples housed
in indoor museums. This book
features hundreds of photos of
aircraft that have been parked
outside for years out in the
elements exposed to the hot
sun, wind and rain. They take
on a character and beautiful
patina that is stunningly amazing in all their
faded glory. This book also features some one off examples of aircraft
that are the last ones is in existence. It includes propeller and jet
engine aircraft and some vintage helicopters. Aircraft enthusiasts and
modellers alike will enjoy “Time Takes It’s Toll”, a very unique book with
some truly amazing photographs along with descriptions of each aircraft.
