Description
In this action-packed memoir of aerial combat in World War II, Norbert Hannig remembers what it was like to fly with the German Luftwaffe on the Eastern Front: the high-altitude drama of closing in on a Soviet bomber, the thrill of watching his rounds hit home and burst the enemy into flames, the excitement of landing unscathed. During his impressive career, Hannig flew the Messerschmitt Bf 109 and Focke-Wulf Fw 190 fighters and the Messerschmitt Me 262, the world's first jet fighter.
