Modest wear Very Good Plus. 3 preliminary pages of typescript text including a page written time-line of the aircraft's development printed recto only. After 16 photographs one typescript page inserted "News Conference Personnel" followed by 3 photographs of the news conference. Laid-in a xerox extract of a column by Fred H. De Jong supporting the aircraft's development & use original publication source not identified. 19 glossy b/w still photographs 8-1/2" x 11" The F-111 Aardvark was an "American supersonic medium-range interdictor and tactical attack aircraft that also filled the roles of strategic nuclear bomber aerial reconnaissance and electronic-warfare aircraft in its various versions. The word 'aardvark' is Afrikaan for 'earthpig' and reflects the look of the long nose of the aircraft that might remind one of the nose of the aardvark. Developed in the 1960s by General Dynamics it entered service in 1967 with the United States Air Force. The F-111 pioneered several technologies for production aircraft including variable-sweep wings afterburning turbofan engines and automated terrain-following radar for low-level high-speed flight. Its design influenced later variable-sweep wing aircraft and some of its advanced features have since become commonplace." Wiki While the US transitioned to other aircraft in the late '90s the F-111 continued in service with the RAAF until December 2010. As Mr. Cosby's introductory note states "These photographs portray the sequence of events of 21 December 1964." No doubt only a limited number of these binders were made mostly likely for visiting dignitaries which makes this a rare promotional photodocumentary of the F-111A's first flight. At the time of cataloguing we find no copies elsewhere in the market nor listed on OCLC. General Dynamics unknown books
