The best index I have found for FlyPast (and various others) I have found is here:

You can also cheat and go to Alastair’s author page here:

I’ve found http://www.theaviationindex.com to be pretty useful, but more so because i’m more interested in magazine articles written but the actual pilots (etc) as opposed to the book listed :rolleyes:

I’ll then typically jump on ebay and get the magazines for next to nothing. Also find it quite cool to be able to see what other articles the author had written – I had no idea some of the articles by Roland Beamont existed

Heres the link to the Hunters page:
