This book is truly a rarity: it comes from the pen of Eric Brown, the former chief test pilot of the Royal Navy, who flew and evaluated 55 different German captured aircraft shortly after the end of the war. Through his connections with German designers, Brown gained access to extensive background material. This book was created, detailing the development, characteristics, and technology of the most famous German aircraft. The vivid descriptions, photographs, and informative cross-sections make this book a must-have for anyone interested in German aircraft of World War II.
