Fokker D VII Aces of World War 1

Informationen zum Autor Norman Franks, Greg VanWyngarden, illustrated by Harry Dempsey, Mark Postlethwaite Klappentext Volume 53 in this series covered Fokker D VII aces from the four elite Jagdgeschwadern of the German army, and this follow-on volume charts the story of the many aces who flew the famed fighter in other units committed to combat in the final months of World War 1. D VII operations covered the entire Western Front, from the North Sea to the Swiss border. In the latter half of 1918 the Fokker was not only the mainstay of the army Jagdstaffeln, but also the most potent fighter flown by home defence Kests and the pilots of the German navy in Flanders. The D VII easily proved the equal of the many British, French, Belgian and American aircraft it met in combat, and served in such roles as day bomber interceptor, 'balloon buster' and nightfighter. Though handicapped by a lack of fuel and other supplies as the German war machine fell apart, aces such as Sachsenberg, Degelow and Rumey utilised the D VII to rack up impressive scores against consistently superior odds. Zusammenfassung The Fokker D was the best German fighting scout of World War 1, flown by leading German aces such as Udet and Goring. This work provides detailed text outlining the exploits of the many German aces that fought in the numerous battles during the final stages of the Great War.
