: almost a decade. Perhaps you're thinking of one of these?

I actually already have Latin American & Caribbean Air Forces (thanks to a tip from Paul Millan last year :)

I re-read my e-mail from Mr. Haggedorn and failed to comprehend that the book he mentioned has yet to be published! He wrote:

"As a matter of fact, at least some of the questions you raised are covered in a book I have completed and which will be published this year by Hikoki in the UK. It has the working title "Air Wars Latin America," and needless to say, the 100 Hour War is covered."

So there's the answer to my question I suppose ;)
