The Eaglerock aircraft were built in the Denver suburb of Englewood and after the factory burned, in Colorado Springs Colorado. The company was started by a couple of brothers who were in the film industry and wanted an airplane to deliver their films. They could not find an available aircraft that was suitable, so designed one. The Eaglerock series became very popular and for a time, were producing more aircraft than anyone in the world.

It measures 7 7/8 inches by 5 ½ inches. The issues were known for their colorful and often whimsical covers. Up for auction is a December 1928 issue. It is a clean and tight edition.

Jaguar XF CKD assembly starts in India
Tue, 22 Jan 2013Jaguar Land Rover has started assembling the Jaguar XF at its plant in Pune, India, in a move to reduce XF retail prices in India. Lower taxes on cars assembled in India from CKD kits produced in the UK (although not as low as they were), rather than importing complete cars from the UK, mean assembling the Jaguar XF in India will give the XF - already Jaguar’s best-selling car in India – a more attractive headline price. That means the 3.0 litre Jaguar XF dropping in price from 5.8 million rupees (around £68k) to 5.1 million (around £60k) and the newly introduced 2.2 litre diesel XF will come to market at 4.5 million rupees (around £53k).
