The X-Planes: X-1 to X-45: 3rd Edition

By far the best available text on U.S. X- Designated Projects. However, the information is as of 1999 and the book was printed in 2001. So, there is nothing in it for the past 16 years or so. It would be nice if Mr. Miller would publish an update ( the current text is the third edition ). Nonetheless, the information - especially on the early X-Craft - is pure gold and well worth the (high) Price if you are looking for a good, solid, well-printed & bound, foundation text on this topic.

No doubt , the best book in the matter. Outstanding job by Jay Miller.

The book is technical and detailed, which is exactly what I wanted. There are a lot of photos that I hadn't seen before.

Great book!

Good overall review of the X-Planes extant when it was written.

Good documentation, wonderful pictures, thorough analysis of this tremendous adventure. And a compliment fto all the actors involved in this interesting phase of aircraft development.

Expensive book, but worth it because of the pictures and quality.Recieved the book timely. Would order again.

Great precis' and informative photographs of each test program.

Super large format hardback.Illustrated with colour and black and white photos throughout.Everything you would ever want to know about the x-plane series.Well researched written and presented and easy to read.Really excellent publication.

a great book at a bargain price thank you

A must have on any aviation fan's shelf...

A superb book. Not the kind of thing you're going to read from cover to cover, but great fun to browse through, or just flick through looking at all the pictures.If you're interested in detail about a particular X-plane, then this will almost certainly have it. It's easily the most comprehensive on my bookshelf.
