Great App
Terrific app and packed with very accurate info. Developers did a great job. UI is good and clean. Has enough info to stay interesting without info overload. As for the Harrier comment below by jodi johnson......it talks about the AV-8B. If you are such an expert, you would know the Brits USED to fly the GR series. Also, the USAF doesn't fly the Harrier, the Marine Corps does. Besides,the Brits just sold their entire Harrier fleet to the US. Get your facts straight before you criticize others.
Great Christmas present
This is truly beautiful, lots of interesting information and beautiful drawings and photos. The 3d rendering is well done, just right for the ipad. Great job!
Nice
Smooth controls. Good renderings. I just wish you could rotate in all dimensions, to see the top and undercarriage, too.
It is not meant to be encyclopedic in data, just enough factual information for casual learning and exposure. I like the timeline feature, too.
