Hi All,

 

A long time ago, Moxy and I were looking for information on his grandfather.  And we came across this website:

 

http://www.aircrewremembered.com/Kracker/KrackerArchive.html

 

It's a great resource.

 

There is no comparable online resource for WW1 (that I know of).  Though, the Ace list at The Aerodrome comes very close.

 

http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/index.php
 

WW1 does have the "encyclopedia" books by Norman Franks and others, however: The Jasta Pilots, The Jasta War Chronology, Above the Lines and Casualties of the German Air Service 1914-1920.

 

I have all four and they're excellent.

 

There are similar books for the Allied powers.

 

But I unfortunately never got those: Over the Front (US & French), The French Air Service War Chronology, Above Flander's Fields (Belgian),  Above the War Fronts (British two-seaters), Above the Trenches (British), and Above the Trenches Supplement (British).

 

I may have missed an Allied book somewhere in there...  if I did, please add them below.  I'd love to check them out.

S!

 

Awesome! Btw, I´m about to finish the Aces of Jagdstaffel 17, nice reading.

Very cool!  I always enjoy reading the Osprey books.
