Re: French testing of German aircraft

There is this book, but in French:
http://www.amazon.fr/avions-allemand.../dp/2950948553

I don't have it, so can say anything about it.

As for former German aircraft used by the French, I will also include Fi 156 and Ju 52.

Concerning the Fw 190, the well-known regiment "Normandie-Niemen" was psot-war equiped with it for some time.

Captured Ju 88 were used for recon and bombing missions against the German pockets on the Atlantic coast, with some losses.

Captured Fi 156 were used in the Alps in spring 1945 to fly recon, supply drops and also attack enemy positions with grenades and so on.
