DORNIER DO 335 AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY
Book Type: C, O By Karl-Heinz Regnat. This is the first comprehensive, well-illustrated documentation on the Do 335, one of the milestones in German aviation history. The Do 335 was developed by Dornier as a heavy fighter in 1943. One of the last high-performance piston-engined aircraft designed, the Do 335 was powered by tandem fore-aft engines, a concept proven in numerous Dornier flying boats. As a result of this configuration, drag was reduced to little more than that of a single-engined aircraft, enabling the Do 335 to achieve very high speeds. The do 335 represented the apex of propeller-driven aircraft in WWII. Features over 240 b/w and color photographs, drawings, and charts. Includes lots of technical data and illustrations also, I would say this book is equally technical and illustrative with also significant text. Don't let the titles mislead, though there are many great photos, this is not just a photo book, far from it. 210 pp. ![]() |
