Re: Me 262 Production Log release date?

George, thank you for those kind words. It was extremely important to me to document everything, I spent to much time/work on this to have anything dismissed. Sadly, only >1/3< of the documents I used are noted. But please be assured, the content was almost entirely from primary sources, i.e. Flugbuch, and numerous RLM/Messerschmitt etc documents.

I actually havn't put the numbers together to see what % were actually in combat, perhaps one of the readers will, it will be VERY interesting to see. Very best, Dan

Re: Me 262 Production Log release date?

According to Ian Allan's bookshop, less than 20 % saw combat.

I notice that the ad for the book called it a paperback, but I got a hardback. Don't know if that's what you're referring to, Jim.

Me 262 Production Log - The Binding Plot Thickens

Hey George!

The only binding option for Log that I could find in the Amazon advert was "paperback." I want CLOTH!!! Bewildered that you ordered "paper" but got a hardback? How can we trust this will happen? :-( Chime in here, Dan!!!

I have only seen Hard Cover copies, not the first time that Amazon makes a mistake. Just check the ISBN to be certain.

Re: Me 262 Production Log release date?

I think you're pretty safe when you order the book, Jim, because I don't think there are any softcovers of the book out there. Is that what you meant, Dan?

Yes George, the ads are wrong, ALL copies are hard bound.

Re: Me 262 Production Log release date?

I have just received a copy of this book for review in the next edition of 'Classic Wings' magazine here in N.Z. and would like to say this is an EPIC work of dedication and determination on Dan's part. If you have ANY serious interest in this pioneering fighter the book is a MUST!

regards
Dave
