Russian Propliners & Jetliners By Colin Ballantine Airlife Publishing

During the Cold War years from the mid-1950s through 1980, some intrepid enthusiasts did manage to photograph Eastern Bloc aircraft. Australian Colin Ballantine was one such person, and this book features many of his rare and unusual images. In addition to now-famous Russian jetliners and Tupolev aircraft, Ballantine captured on film many lesser-known airplanes during his clandestine photographic sorties into the Soviet Union.
