Request for old Air Corps photos for a new book.

[Joemax]

I'm working on a book with PJ Cummins illustrating the colour schemes
and markings used by the Irish Air Corps from 1922 to
the present day. The book will consist of brief
histories of each aircraft type that were used,
illustrated with period photos and new high quality
colour profiles for the aircraft for which only black
and white photos exist.

I'm seeking assistance in locating photographs of
Irish Air Corps aircraft that have hitherto not been
published.  As many of the best Air Corps shots have been
published before we are attempting to source as many
original photos from private collections as possible.
We won't be in a position to pay for any photos used
in the book but we will acknowledge all assistance
received, credit each photo with the name of the
author or collection and give contributors a free copy
of the book.

I'm looking for photos of any aircraft type used by
the Air Corps in the period 1922 to around1945.
Any help on this project would be much appreciated.

Best regards,

No photos but your book sounds very interesting. See my thread in the Irish Air Corps page about the IAC and the Emergency.  Have you any more information on the night the IAC was scrambled following foreign aircraft were picked up by search lights over the Dublin sky?

Keep us posted about the book. It sounds interesting!
