• One of the best things about the US government is the way that non-classified reports etc. have to be made available to the public; NASA's history division website is a goldmine of project and organisational histories, most of which are available for download. The USAF histories are a bit harder to find, but many of them are online as well, as are many of the air university press publications.

  • NASA's historical web stuff is fascinating. Who would have guessed that the only pilot in the world to fly both Concorde & the Tuplolev TU-144 (Condordski) was a NASA test pilot Robert Rivers, and he went to Russia to do this with a broken leg. Remarkable!
