NEW BOOK - Fw 190 D Camouflage & Markings - Pt. 1

[Eric Larger]

Hello

For the moment , nothing really is planned for a book on Ta 152 . As you know preparing such an issue is a project spread on several years . I have personnally , other project in mind regarding Luftwaffe , but let me time to elaborate them to reach the same level we achieve with the books on Fw 190D-9.

It is sure that there are similarities between camouflage and markings of Fw 190D-9 and Ta 152 ones , simply first because the machines were produced in the same factories at the same time .

The idea is nice , but first we will concentrate on Fw 190D-9 , and especially on volume II . JaPo will then decide what will be the next publications . Some others are being to be prepared , that is what I can say to you .

All the best

...and there have been a quite nice publication from JaPo on Ta 152...I think it was one of their first books Of course paper, color and photo quality was not so good, but info was nice in it...

Yes Peter

You are right , it was a nice book and I think their first book , except the print quality , there were a lot interesting points in it , I do not speak about the text , as I do not read Czech .

It was the reason why I bought it as the book on Fw 190F too .

All the best

I got the book !
It's definitely a must buy, it includes a bunch of color pictures including cockpit pictures. The profiles are very nice and along with ultra detailled profiles there are a lot of mini profiles a bit like the ones you could find in the Hikoki books, there are quite useful for gettting a general view of a camouflage or specific pattern.
The analysis seems very good but i haven't got time to check it thoroughly yet. A nice addition is of colors used by staffeln and a list of known 190D-9 losses.

A very good buy indeed, and i got it a fairly low price of 35 Euros !
I highly recommand it, impatiently waiting for the next opus

One book seller I know will have it here in the U.S. but the bookhave not arrived yet - a bit expensive here at $65. Maybe some other forum members can let me know if they are getting a better deal.
