We also have an extensive section focusing on Naval vessels and their history. We now offer a huge selection of books and magazines for the Modeller. Modelling Aviation or Military, how to do guides, painting guide etc plus many more. We also cross over into the world of Sci-Fi and Fantasy books. Our aim has always been to search out the most interesting books available from both the UK, Europe and from around the world, available in the English language and the language of the country of origin and to make them available to our customers here in the UK and throughout the world. Over the years we have supplied customers in the UK and internationally and we continue to do so. We ship domestic orders and international orders daily - please check out the countries we ship to. We welcome hearing from you, customers, author, or publisher. If you have an enquiry, please drop us an email at sales@aviationbookcentre.com.

Fantastic just not perfect (sadly)

First time using these and I wish I could give a 5 star but sadly there was a slight mix up. I was sent the wrong item, but things were sorted very amicably. The only reason for the 4 star is I had to take the wrong item to the post office to return it. If correct item had been sent then it would be 5 stars all the way. Errors happen though so not a complaint in the slightest....I just can't give 5 stars if things weren't perfect.

Happy german first time buyer

I am a first time buyer with Aviation&MilitaryBook Centre and I am impressed. Very fast service (delivery to Germany took just 7 days and tracking was accurate), secure packaging and the parcel so well labeled that customs clearance took just half a day (and 22,85 Euro; I have to admit - but the books were absolutely worth it). Thank you very much from a happy customer.
