Panel lines on aircraft

not sure about a book but i've seen it done from everything from an airbrush, to a wash, to plain drybrushing! i'm sure someone will help you further...but perhaps you might get better results posting this in the aircraft forum?!

What are the techniques to use to produce the panel line details that I see on various aircraft? Is there a good reference book about it?

You can use pre-shading for engraved panel lines. See a free video from Phil Forey at promodeller.com. (The second one on basic airbrushing on the page.)
