Books are the original internet and I have made use of the following: European - Military Out of Service 2007 - Otger van der Kooij and Andy Marden This is a book listing various former military aircraft which survived to today and now call the Europe home. This excellant book makes a good trip planning tool and is useful when traveling to find displayed aircraft. You can obtain a copy via Scramble. U.S.A. - Military Out of Service - Andy Marden This is a book listing various former military aircraft which survived to today and now call the U.S.A. home.

Guide to Over 900 Aircraft Museums, USA & Canada - Michael A. Blaugher This is a must-have item if you like to go searching for aviation museums and sites.
