Roland Aircraft of WWI

[Lee]

Jack Herris just released the 9th volume to his "A Centennial Perspective on Great War Airplanes" Series.

 

The newest is "Roland Aircraft of WW1."  According to amazon: "This book describes and illustrates the development of L.F.G. Roland aircraft in WWI with text, 390 photos (9 in color), 50 color profiles, production quantities and serial numbers of aircraft and aircraft dimensions and performance specifications. In addition, 8 Roland aircraft types are illustrated in 1/48 scale drawings. The book has 206 letter-size (8.5â€x11â€) pages and is of interest to aviation historians, enthusiasts, and modelers alike."

 

This one should be landing here at the beach on Monday.  I have the entire series and recommend them highly, although some may find "Nachtflugzeug! German N-Types of WWI" a bit thin for the money, but then the Germans didn't make many N Types.

This looks like an amazing series!

 

Is this the first one of the group?

May have to pick it up.

Yes, that's the first one.  If you only get one in the series it's the one to get.  It covers all the German types, the blueprint or index as you will for the rest of the series.
