Very nice@
If you are looking for a book to model the He 162 with, this ain't it. If however you want the story of the Volksjager, with original source documents (in German), then this is definitely the book you want. Unfortunately it is not the book I was hoping for.

Very nice Jim!
Whoops sorry Jim, called you George for some reason.
Book came a couple of days ago. I have been reading it off and on and a very good book. Jim was right it can be sad at times but full of stuff I did not know. If your interested in reading about pilots that flew for Japan its very interesting read.

Oh man, that is getting on the list! Thanks gents.
A wonderful book worthy of the series and I am only part of the way through it! Highlights include a picture of the interior of one of the high altitude birds with pressurized cockpit, a breakdown of the geodetic parts common to the Wellington AND Warwick as well as info on the wing structure and unique skin of the Windsor. Loving it! The best part is all this can be yours for a bit over $10.00 USD on the used book market...and I read on LibraryThing that there is a revised edition...gotta keep searching!
CORRECTION: According to Haynes, there was no revised edition (see response below)
"Dear Sir
Thank you for your email. I am sorry but we have not published a revised edition of this manual, and the current one is now out of print.
Kind regards

I guess you can't believe everything you read...
German language monographs with many excellent pictures, some of which I have never seen before. A steal at under $30.00 USD for the lot, including shipping. Happy!

"Three Times Lucky" is a good read. I was mostly interested in his early experiences flying Blenheims...but it's a very readable book.
