Andy,

Just a small note: I have read just the Hungarian Aces book, but it contains mistakes and high percent of these mistakes were made not by the author, but by the publisher (editing, printing, painting mistakes)
Their another book with Hungarian details, about the WW I Austro-Hungarian aces is simply a weak one.

So, I am not a fan of the Osprey's basic style at all.
