I was able to peruse this book at the US IPMS convention this past weekend, and it is indeed an impressive work, particularly with the number of color photos of operational IAR-80s, profiles, and drawings. There also is a lot of text, and since my French hasn't progressed much beyond my '60s high school "Bonjour Jean, comment vas tu?" level, I had to pass it up, being a marginal subject for my interest. However, had it been a subject of which I am deeply interested, I wouldn't have hesitated - as shown by the number of German language books I posssess solely for their photographic content (I speak even less German - typical American !).
