A compilation of extensive articles by Eric "Winkle" Brown on German aircraft that he "test" flew both during and after World War 2. I regard it as a 'follow up' to Brown's autobiography "Wings on my sleeve" which must be compelling reading for any aviation "buff". A most remarkable pilot.

Many aircraft tested in flight, with very nice pictures and colour profiles. All aircrafts flown by the same pilot, with its pertinent comments
For WWII German aircraft, it is a very interesting read from the perspective of an English pilot who flew each of them.
