Condizione: gut. 1993. Black 6. The Extraordinary Restoration of a Messerschmitt Bf 109. In deutscher Sprache. pages.

Hardcover with dust jacket. Condizione: Very good condition, like new. First Edition - - On 17 March 1991, at RAF Benson in Oxfordshire, Black 6 flew for the first time since the Second World War. That day this particular Messerschmitt Bf 109 became unique - not only as the sole example of its type that is airworthy, but also as the only genuine German combat aircraft from the war flying anywhere in the worid. The historic flight marbed the culmination of a 19-year restoration programme by volunteer enthusiasts, led by a British pilot, Russ Snadden. - Black 6, as the fighter was known to its German pilots, was damaged in combat so saw only a few weeks of service during the war. However the Bf 109 aircraft served with the Luftwaffe for eight years and fought with distinction in every theatre of war in Europe and North Africa. Although it was built in greater quantities by far than any other type, and fired the imagination of the public on both sides of the conflict, only a handful of examples survives today - and only this one flies. - Russ Snadden had for many years been fascinated by Second World War aviation. A pilot with the Royal Air Force for 16 years before beginning a new career with Britannia Airways flying the Boeing 737, he searched long and hard for a suitable candidate for restoration. Black 6 is testimony to his perseverance. This is the extraordinary story of that voluntary project, the struggle to win assistance from industry, the search for missing equipment, and the piecing together of wartime personnel and events that has built up a remarfeably full history of the war plane in action. 223 p. many photos.
