    Purchased at the "Buy It Now" price with the stipulated shipping, but was canceled by the Seller without explanation. I tried to message them but my message was ignored. Seller has poor customer service and reneges on their obligations on a whim.

    I never received a message from you. eBay checkout did not offer me international shipping on this item, which I use frequently. The address you gave for shipping outside US required tariffs and forms I had no access to completing the additional paperwork. I pride myself on outstanding customer service. I sent reason for the cancel to eBay. eBay DID NOT forward any message from you to me.

    2nd in the series, the 1st book is needed to understand the 2nd book better.

    This is the 2nd book in the series by the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum Staff. While the book is titled INSIDE HISTORY MAKING AIRCRAFT the images are not about the cockpit controls, that's the 1st book of the series. This book contains some internal images AND many external images because the control aspects impact he externals as well as the internals. Understanding that this is part of the series means it's more valuable, BUT if you want control panel information from the museum aircraft the 1st book is great with visuals. The details learned reading the whole 1st book assist in more understanding with reading through this book.
