Title: This book is not about the airplane
Review: As a regular reader of 'Wings/Airpower', I found this book completely & absolutely NOT WORTHWHILE. There may be about 3-4 paragraphs about the actual airplane, but the ENTIRE rest of the book deals with "in late Oct. '44, the 3rd Russian squadron of the 5th Ukrainian Airforce changed it's squadron designation to the 18th Russian squadron".Here are some obvious questions that are NOT answered in the book . . .1. How did it compare in low-level fighting agaist Zero's? FW-190's? Me-109's?2. What good qualities did this maligned airplane have that the Russians could trounce FW-190's & Me-109's at low level.Why aren't there any interviews with pilots? ? ? ?-If you want a book about paint schemes, it's OK. If you want a book about the Airplane itself, this isn't it.
Is the review positive or negative?
