Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Thanks Franck

I think you should read the stuff one more time. There is a quote in English which says the same thing (partly) as the book by Phil Butler.

The site also refers to a Vol 1 of Les Avions Allemands aux couleurs Francaises but fails to note the correction in vol 2 where the same authors correct themselves saying that no He 177 was ever flown by Armée de l'Air, only by SNCASE and CEV.

The Airdoc books have received some criticism within French circles as being not 100% well researched (I find them never-the-less very useful), but if I have to chose, I would go with the version listed by Phil Butler.

Cheers
Stig
