A REVIEW
The F-18 Hornet is an aircraft highly rated and hard to review. However, this book includes insight and the things I really wanted to see and couldn't with anything else (sorry "JANES"). Good information and coverage on specific points really made this book a good read and stare.

Excellent Modeler Resource-Typical Verlinden
Excellent detail shots of entire airplane, This is a Walk-around type Picture book for hardcore enthusiasts. Very little to no aircraft history, operational stories, pics of different squadron markings, etc. But those are available elsewhere. This is a reference for the serious modeler, If you are interested in the actual mechanics of the Bug this book would go very nicely with a maintenance manual so you can figure out what all those black boxes and parts actually do. Typical verlinden book, a thousand shots of one or two planes in gruesome detail.
