Hi everyone,

I was wondering what set of books per se might address this aerial war in proper order
while discussing the planes involved and areas of combat.

Also, I wanted to know what, if any, maps are available to purchase in a book format
or what have you that covered this area during the years of the war.

Any recommendations/suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Stefnuts

P.S. Mods you might want to stick this!

Steppfnuts, Being an " extraordinaire, humble man, Lou failed to mention his wonderful maps you can download from the WOFF site. If you fly "hardcore" which I would suggest you try once you get the feel of WOFF, they are invaluable. I use them whenever I fly.

Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear or a fool from either end.

Hi Guys,

I can't find them ANYWHERE! LOL

Thank you,

P.S. My name is Stefnuts man. It's a combo of Stefo, my name in Greek, and nuts as in "fun".

I'm not German!

Thanks and stay cool!
