Here's a preview of the index and some sample pages, looks quite promising and I for one pre-ordered.

Thanks Mihai.

Page 95 is double funny:
- the "F-8" was actually an A-6, WNr. 550503
- the well known 'Yellow 8' belonged to JG 301 and was found in Salzwedel

If the rest of the book is equally reliable...

I can't read French but as long as the fuselage codes and werknummern are given, I'll be fine.

Ed, they call the A-6 an F-8 and say that 'Yellow 8' was from SG 2 and captured at Munchen-Riem...

Yes, well, let them know. Otherwise, until something better comes along...
I bought the four volume set of books about the Me 262 from Classic. There was an errata page that was free to download. I downloaded it and dropped it into the book in question.

Well..I for one am so "thirsty" for anything new SG2 related, that even if some new info of the operational type appears it's more than enough for me, the losses and id's I can deal with myself afterwards...
