Captain Eric Brown... Flying the Fw 190A

[Trooper117]

Eric Brown needs no introduction, so I'll skip the history lesson.

These are his accounts and notes from his book, 'Wings of the Luftwaffe' on flying the Fw 190 A4.

I know we have the A3 in game, but his observations on handling are still pertinent.

 

For those of you who do not have this book, I urge you to obtain it, as it has a wealth of information on flying many of the well known aircraft types that were in service with the Luftwaffe during WWII.

 

Please start reading from ''Superb control harmony'' onwards,

 

Hope this is useful...

Thanks for that

 

Interesting read

Amazing. Just when I'm more inclined to get into the 190 with more depth. Good timing.

I've been warned off about copyright so I can't post anymore manuals or pilot accounts or data... sorry chaps.

Sorry to hear that, but thanks for making me aware of these. I'll be sure to check them out

Yeah there's a subtle difference between producing your own contribution and quoting someone inline, vs. just re-posting content that is owned by others. I'd recommend the former.

It*s a shame

[Dakpilot]

No its not a shame

 

the shame will be when no-one bothers to invest their time to make and research books any more, because of the internet

 

(this is no way aimed at the OP who was obviously only being helpfull to the community)

 

Cheers Dakpilot

I have a huge library of WWI and WWII aviation books, I've been collecting them for many years, so all my technical info and scans that I post on any forum comes from there, not the internet.

However, not everyone can afford to own all the books I own, so the internet is a god given must have, so I can see both sides of the coin.
