Summary: First Hand Experience
Comment: World war two is history like other things we learned from books and media. But how many times could you find a reference is written by a person who actually flew those airplanes ? Especially they were not Allied's planes, they were German's military airplanes.
You could learn the speed, range or how many guns of each airplanes from tones other books, but you won't be able to learn the feeling to fly all of them by the same person from them.
This book was published long long time ago, but don't think the data and describtion is also old. Those experience is never faded away.

Summary: Back in Print, and Justifiably so...
Comment: Besides being in the Guiness Book of World Records for the number of different aircraft types flown (over 500!) Eric "Winkle" Brown has authored several books concerning test flying and evaluation. "Wings of the Luftwaffe" reads like all the others...scholarly with a welcome dose of English wit! The inclusion of clear photos, profile drawings and cut-aways are further enhancements. Readers of the Air Enthusiast and Air International from the 1970's will recognize that "Wings of the Luftwaffe" is a compilation Mr. Brown's flight test reports printed in those magazines during 1970's and 80's. Having them in one volume saves much time in not having to look through back issues. No other book I know of captures the essence of flying these earliest of jet aircraft. Layman friends of mine have also responded enthusiastically to "Wings of the Luftwaffe" It is therefore highly recommended.
