Best aviation books

Hi Franek.

I am not the correct person to comment on the alledged superiority of some Soviet fighter designs, as I know precious little about them, except what i ahve read in the aforementioned bookk and some others I have in my collection. Besides, I think Pilawskii has done this in his book. Of course, he could eb wring, but he backs up his claims with tests results and also actual combat experience of the involved types.

Having read this book I am not in doubt that the La-7 must count as one of the very best fighters of its time (i.e. 1944-45).
