I still use the old book as my main Luftwaffe reference, but every time I see the 3-way view of a Me 109K I wonder what other inaccuracies I am accepting as fact.
I do not know how much "updating" or "editing" has been done in the new version. The original was a great compendium of Luftwaffe aircraft. Maybe do a Google search for a review of the new one?

Hey, you don't believe there was an operational Bf 109K-14? Come'on now "Thomas". You know Hartmann flew one!
