5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent addition to the bookshelf., 31 Aug 2004
By Ned Middleton (British professional underwater photo-journalist & author) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: German Aircraft of the Second World War (Hardcover)
German Aircraft of the Second World War is a hardback book measuring 11" x 8" (28cm x 20cm) containing almost 400 pages of solid information. Whilst the opportunities to visit any warplane underwater are extreme rare, I have visited hundreds of ships which met their fate at the hands of such aircraft and this book has yet to let me down as I search for the detailed knowledge I seek to complete the entire story of each such shipwreck.

Just as there are different makes, models and special editions with the motor cars of yesterday and today, so there were many variants of the different aircraft - not only because those aircraft evolved as they were improved, but also because some were converted to undertake a more specialist role. For example, there are over 9 pages devoted to just the Heinkel HE111 and all it's variants so, it does seem reasonable to assume all that modifications for the many other aircraft are also all there.

As one might expect, the bulk of the book is taken up with Fixed Wing Aircraft (as was the bulk of the German Luftwaffe) after which are sections on Rotary Wing Aircraft (helicopters), Fixed Wing Aircraft Projects and Missiles. There are sufficient photographs throughout the book to ensure each aircraft is well represented.

For many people, I am certain this will be the only book on the is subject they will ever need.
