The book, Albatros Fighters (A Wind-Sock Data Files Special Collectors Edition) includes Albatros D II, D III & D V bi-plane fighter data previously published in the popular "Windsock Datafiles" series of early aviation books.  This "Special Collectors Edition" also includes fully revised scale plans, coverage of the D I, together with contemporary sketches, plus an extended camouflage and markings section, which also includes new color profiles and available kit listing.  Often overshadowed by the very maneuverable Fokker D I tri-plane and the later more powerful D VII, the various Albatros variants, which included the D I, D II, DIII, D V and D Va, were the aircraft that formed the backbone of the German fighter force from mid 1916 through 1917 during World War I.  Even as the Albatros IIIs and Vs began to be replaced by the Fokker D VII in 1918, they continued to be flown throughout the remainder of the war.  The Albatros fighters were durable, stable gun platforms that were relatively straightforward to fly.  In fact, Albatros D IIIs remained in production even after being formally replaced by the D V and D Va variants, which to many is as good a testimonial to the soundness of the basic design as any.  The major sections of "Albatros Fighters (A Wind-Sock Data Files Special Collectors Edition)" are as follows: 1) An Introduction; 2) Albatross D I / D II; 3) Albatros D III; 4) Albatros D V / D Va; 5) Albatros D V / D VA In Detail; 6) Colours And Markings; 7) Appendices and 8) Albatros Model Kits.  In addition to an informative narrative, "Albatros Fighters (A Wind-Sock Data Files Special Collectors Edition)" includes the following features: 1) Approximately 106 black and white vintage photographs; 2) 4 color photographs; 3) About 25 black and white illustrations; 4) 3 pages of Albatros D I 1/72 multi-view black and white scaled drawings; 5) 3 pages of Albatros D III 1/72 multi-view scaled drawings; 6) 3 pages of Albatros D V / D Va 1/72 multi-view black and white scaled drawings; 7) 6 black and white side aircraft profile illustrations with unit identification; 8) 6 color side aircraft profile illustrations with unit identification; 9) 1 Albatros D II black and white top-view camouflage illustration; 10) a Albatros D V black and white top-view camouflage illustration and 11) 1 Albatros D V black and white camouflage illustration.  This book is 56 pages and is in very good condition.  The author is Brian Knight.  Edition published in 1991.
