Aviation Archive
on German aircraft reviews the
flying-boats, seaplanes, transports and gliders operated by
the Luftwaffe. The format follows that of the previous books
on German Fighters and Bombers in dealing with the types in the
order of first flights in each section, supported by cutaway drawings
by John Weal of some of the most significant machines to see service
between the mid-1930s and 1945.
Where possible, the Archive series has included detail photographs
taken by the magazines
Aeroplane
and
Flight,
but the majority of
the illustrations in this edition come from other sources. The author
acknowledges the kind assistance of the Bundesarchive and various
friends in Germany including Klaus Peters as well as those who are
no longer with us – Hans Redemann, Alfred Kruger, Gerhard Patt, and
respected historian, William Green.
More than 20 different types are described and their stories provide a
fertile ground in tracing the progress of the wartime Luftwaffe, from its
initial successes from 1939 through to 1942, the stalemate and gradual
retreat in North Africa and the first strong resistance in Russia, until the
decimation of the transport units over the last two years of the conflict,
and the whittling away of the already diminished marine elements.
Compared with the combat units that received the majority of new
designs through the six years of war, there were no new seaplanes or
flying-boats introduced after 1940 and very little new on the transport
front after the Junkers Ju 352 flew in October 1943.
