Random aero items not warranting a thread all to themselves...

Today's find at Gutenberg.  A contemporary biography of Roland Garros.  Unfortunately for me I can't read French, but if you can you can find it here.

If you can read Dutch then you might find this interesting, especially if you're following Henk's Fokker F-VIIa thread. Even if you are a confirmed monoglot the pictures are worth a look.

French - okay
Dutch - a frayed knot
Thanks for the llinks, Lurk

Thanks Lurker - What a find - and coincidental timing too given the Fokker builds going on!
I don't know Dutch but I cheated and found a button that provides an English translation.
Def some good pics - and even includes a long shot of the KLM field where F.II H-NABC is parked (the one right in the middle in case the resolution is not enough to read) together with other F.II/F.IIIs and similar aircraft.
cheers

A wonderfull find, Lurk, that book on the flight to the Dutch East Indies. So many good pictures that a model F.VII of this first series is very possible! And an insightfull historical document too.
