Sharks of the Air

Willy Messerschmitt and the Development of History's First Operational Jet Fighter

Beschreibung

This book tells the story of Willy Messerschmitt's life, and shows how this aeronautical genius built many revolutionary airplanes-not excluding the Luftwaffe's mainstay, the Me-109-and culminating in the Me-262.

Autor

Author James Neal Harvey has been a pilot for more than 40 years and has owned a dozen aircraft (including a De Havilland Tiger Moth built for the RAF, a Stinson V-77 that flew in the Royal Navy, and a Messerschmitt Bf-108 that served in the Luftwaffe). Author of six previous books, his grasp of aero-dynamics informs the narrative, as he examines how Messerschmitt might well have changed the course of the Second World War.
