Re: Pierre Clostermann died today at 85

Very sad. Would have loved to talk to the man, if only to thank him for introducing me to the wonderful world of WWII aviation history.

Like countless others, his books got me interested in WWII aviation and espcially the Luftwaffe. I can never forget the photos of a crash landed Fw 190D-9 in the book which just looked like an amazing aircraft! Of course I had to find out more about it and over time I did!

It would be interesting to see how many of the visitors at this forum who got their introduction to our common interest through one or both of Clostermann's books! Count me as one!
