The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 3
Factory and field photographs trace American military aviation from the Bell P-39 Airacobra and North American B-25 Mitchell through rarely seen experimental types such as the Curtiss-Wright XP-55 Ascender, Douglas XB-28, and Douglas XTB2D-1 Skypirate. Later images of the Boeing B-47 Stratojet and North American X-15 carry the story into the jet age and the edge of spaceflight.
