The next book released will be Neil Dunridge's incredible book on the A-10. See here for details. After that will be Bases of the World, Volume I, which covers a very busy and unique base in PACAF. Once these two books are finished over the summer, I'll do another Modern Guide, and that is where you come in.

Your options are:

1) The Modern Hornet Guide. Covers the USN, USMC, and export F-18A-D. Full coverage of those jets is given, including ATARS, USMC F/A-18Ds, early Lot and late Lot jets, and carrier ops.

2) The Modern Hog Guide, 2nd Edition. Expanded coverage to the first volume, but with all-new pics, more early A-10A coverage, more squadron histories/pics, air-air pics, in action pics, etc. Should be about 180 pages, up from 136 in the first edition.

3) The Modern Eagle Guide, 2nd Edition. Same as the Hog Guide with all new pics, but with more emphasis on the export jets, such as JASDF Eagles, and the new ROKAF and Singapore F-15K/SG. Again, more air-airs, in-action pics, etc.

Each of these will be done over the next year or two anyway, so you guys let me know what you want first. Each one is complete right now and can go to the printers imminently.

Thanks for the input, guys. It looks like the Hornet Guide will be the next, followed by the A-10. The poor Eagle doesn't seem to be that missed!!

You don't have a button for all three.

I voted for the F-15 book. I wasn't fortunate enough to get one of the originals...

Alright! All for the new Hornet book. I have the first editions of the A-10 and F-15 books and am happy with them.

Would have voted for that one if I didn't already have one.

As I already own the modern phantom guide, I'm thinking it would have been a good idea to have another about early phantoms.
