Thread: Lastest Osprey Aircraft of the Aces is out

    Default Lastest Osprey Aircraft of the Aces is out

    The latest Osprey 'Aircraft of the Aces' landed on my doormat this morning. Looks like an interesting read on an oft-overlooked subject.

    Available on Amazon UK

    Thanks for the Heads Up Steve. Amazon seem to have let me down on this one, and it will help fill another gap in my knowledge base on WW2 aircraft.

    I'm still peeved that with all the weird and esoteric subjects that have gotten coverage by Osprey, where's the Warrior book on the German Schwartz Ritter!

    Karl - Ace 14 = one four = 1st April. I thought the authors names would have given it away earlier

    Rob just got back from Jury Service. Thank goodness I did not have time to complain to Amazon about not being informed about the new title this morning.
    Good one Squadron Leader.

    Yes I agree, I thought maybe it was kills spread out through different aircraft, and maybe including gunners... Ah well, I've been a little more than gullible today.

    Utterly hilarious - had it not been for the author names then this almost had me fooled too
