Douglas TA-4J из эскадрильи VC-1 в одном строю с ERA-3B (№ 144827) из VAQ-33 во время учений в 1978 году. Обратите внимание на два ветроэлектрогенератора на борту Skywarrior и контейнеры AN/ALQ-76 под его крылом. Дополнительная аппаратура РЭБ была установлена в бомбоотсеке самолета.
For a change, we thought an aircraft without roundels should go on the front cover. The ERA-3B Skywarrior is from VAQ-33, a tactical electronics warfare squadron and the TA-4J Skyhawk from VC-1.

The famous North Island Naval Air Station at San Diego with a S-3A Viking of VS-21 flying by. Sadly, no Seagulls on the slipway as in the past. As for using the seaplane ramp as a car park, that smacks of sacrilege.

The mystery of the airfield in AM.4/88 has been solved with the return of the photograph. It was Great Dunmow and was full of Horsas when the photograph was taken.

Bristol F.2b F4717 was a Mk.IV serving with No.2 Squadron.
The Bristol F.2b F4717 in the same issue does not appear to be a Mk.IV as it does not have the enlarged fin and balanced rudder of that mark nor the HP slots. It is one of No.4's refurbished wartime aircraft.

Gordon K1740, previously of No.40 Squadron, on floats at Felixstowe during trials. Water handling was better than on the Fairey IIIF. Apart from No.47 Squadron's periodic changes from wheels to floats at Khartoum, five of the twenty Gordons sold to the Brazilian Navy were floatplanes.

Japan's first fighter of indigenous design, the Koshiki-2 appeared to owe much to the Spad S.XIII and Salmson 2 A1 fighters.
Jack Meaden sends in his identification of the Japspad on page 109 of the last AM. It is a Ko Type 2, also known as the A-94, and one was built by the Tokorosawa Army Flight School in 1922. It had a 230 hp Salmson 9Z engine which explains its French appearance and was based on the Salmson 3C-1. I-struts replaced the normal pairs, the fin and rudder were revised and a faired head-rest added behind the cockpit. The tailplane struts are unusual in that the front one was attached to the fuselage a considerable distance forward of the tailplane. The Japanese also used the Salmson 2A-2 observation aircraft which had a similar engine.
