Summary: During the 1960s and 70s, Profile Publications Ltd produced over 200 A5 format books aircraft; mainly military subjects from WWI and WWII. Generally running to 10pp including covers, they offered a well-detailed overview of the development and use of each aircraft type, often including the assignment of individual serials aircraft to particular sqns, and providing tabulated weights and performance data. However, their greatest contribution to modellers were full colour 3-view and side elevation drawings depicting various sqn markings. While often reproduced in part, sometimes illegally as they remain within copyright although no-one seems to know who owns it now, and overtaken by Windsock Datafiles (for WWI subjects), they remain a reasonable source of information for modellers. I don't know who originally compiled this list of subjects, but they have my sincere thanks!
