Bookie's Focke-Wulf 190 / Ta 152 Page (original) (raw)
In September 2010 Morten Jessen and I launched our own little aviation history publishing company, Air War Publications. The company's first book, The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 in the Battle for Sicily, was launched at the same time. We are now hard at work on several other book titles, and also dozens of electronic articles. The most advanced book projects are:
- The Henschel 123
- Air War Courland, June 1944 - May 1945
- The Focke-Wulf 190 Defending Southern Italy, 3 September 1943 - 21 January 1944
The Focke-Wulf 190 features prominently in the Air War Courland book, because it served with Jagdgeschwader 54, and various ground-attack units based in the region (most notably the III. Gruppe of Schlachtgeschwader 3).
