comment: My (somewhat lame) excuse for posting this is that on page 294 the KD-1 is featured..... but to be honest... I just love the pure nostalgia of the thing....;-)

It seems that you can obtain any other year by simply replacing the number in the URL so e.g. the 1919 year book would be:

"http://www.aia-aerospace.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/THE-1919-AIRCRAFT-YEAR-BOOK.pdf" (omit the quotes if you copy this one)
http://www.aia-aerospace.org/wp-cont...-YEAR-BOOK.pdf

and e.g. the 1929:
"http://www.aia-aerospace.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/THE-1929-AIRCRAFT-YEAR-BOOK.pdf" (this is the URL you will see if you place your mouse over the link below and look in the lower left corner of your browser panel)
