It was mentioned in the thread "Flying The D.H.4" (didn't want to hijack the thread).

I gather it came out in 1918. Is there a copy of it (in English) available online? I've never actually seen it, have only heard of it mentioned.

Excellent read.

It may be. It's published in Kilduff's MvR biography, so buy one of those. Or send me a PM with email addy and I'll send it. But still by Kilfuff's book. biggrin

Kilduff's THE RED BARON - BEYOND THE LEGEND must be THE standard book on MvR to start with.
A great historian's work; not romaticised, and full of detail.

Spent about 5 minutes on Google and much to my surprise I couldn't find it.

No not one of the books it is in (which I have) but "Dicta Richthofen" posted somewhere on the Internet.
Sorry I should have been more clear. Sure I saw it somewhere once...
