1-st and 2-end edition differences

Hi
I wodner how much was has been changed the 2-end edition to the first one, edited in 2003, or 2004?

Having acces the the first - and read it in Russia - I know that this is very good done, solid job, congratulation to the author.
But I do not know how much was improved in this period in the second one. Can you ask author about this one "small question?
Thanks in advance

Regards,
Mirek Wawrzyński, Poland

He tald me that 2nd edition is "cut" version. Some photoes, colour profiles cut off, and so on.

It is commonly thought that 1st edition was better much

Strange? It is mostly better with second edition, then first one. Some new material, corrections, comments, and th second is improved one then first.

I wonder what about the text (photos - OK: cut; color or b+w drawings & plates - OK: off, too), what about the main text?
The main value of this book is as for me the text? Additipnal things are valuable of course but photos are not so "importatn" in such book.

Are there any cuts in this main text material too?
Are there any correction done in the main text too?

Regards,
Mirek W

I received an answer from Sergey Abrosov, to my question about confirmation for claims of several pilots of Legion Condor, who then flew as Bf110 pilots in WW II.
