Free Download Hermann Buchner - Stormbird: One of the Luftwaffe's Highest Scoring Me262 Aces
Crecy Publishing | 2008 | ISBN: 0859791394 | English | 296 pages | PDF | 143.62 MB
Bomber pilots who become fighter pilots are rare, Hermann Buchner was one. The author, a Luftwaffe NCO pilot and Knight's Cross holder gives a riveting account of his training with the pre-war Austrian airforce, instructing with the Luftwaffe then the terrifying ground attack operations on the Eastern Front.
Despite being shot down twice, Buchner himself targeted Il 2s, Yak 9s and Boston bomber who fell victims to his eagle eye.
Later tasked with opposing the Allied daylight bombing raids into deepest Germany, Buchner laboured to protect his homeland. Serving alongside many well-known aces and sometimes taking off from his home airfield while under Soviet shellfire, he paints a picture of a man surviving against incredible odds, who became one of the elite with JG7 and learnt that the important thing with the Me262 was to land near a convenient foxhole.
Supplemented by over 140 photographs, mostly from the author's personal collection together with colour profiles of his aircraft and opponents, Stormbird presents a remarkable insight into the life of a Luftwaffe pilot in WWII.
