Willy Messerschmitt (1898-1978) was indisputably one of the most significant of Germany's aeronautical design engineers. Hans Ebert worked in the archival center at Messerschmitt AG and was an advisor for air and space to the Deutsches Museum. Johann Kaiser worked for BFW and was responsible for the Bf109 and Bf110 aircraft handbooks and helped establish technical archives. Klaus Peters was an aeronautical engineer and the editor of several aeronautical publications. In 1983 he became chief of records for MBB. This book examines Messerschmitt's life as a designer, aircraft builder, and businessman; it begins with the Harth-Messerschmitt gliders (1913-1923), winds its way through the sportplanes of the 1920s and 1930s, the M 18 and M 20 passenger airliners, the Bf 108 Taifun commuter plane, the Bf/Me 109, 110, 210, 410 military aircraft, and continues on to the Me 261, 264, 321, and 323 behemoths, as well as the Me 262 jet powered combat plane and swing-wing P.1101. The activities of the Messerschmitt AG after World War II, with the forced interruption of German aircraft production and Professor Messerschmitt's foreign developments in Spain and Egypt, are also given a thorough treatment. From a review found on-line: One might think that everything that could be said about Messerschmitt aircraft has already been said. Nothing could be further from the truth. In Willy Messerschmitt: Pioneer of Aviation Design, authors Hans J. Ebert, Johann B. Kaiser and Klaus Peters have created a monumental work, filled with new and fascinating material on Messerschmitt the man and on his famous series of aircraft. Originally written in German, the book was translated by Ray J. Theriault and Don Cox. This book, with its hundreds of photos, drawings and graphs, is a must-have. The biographical information on Messerschmitt is quite revealing, and the authors keep him in the forefront as they detail the creation of each of his many designs. His earliest glider designs, done in cooperation with Friedrich Harth, are of particular interest. Although advanced in concept, they were doomed to failure by their focus on "wing control." Once Messerschmitt began operating on his own, he adhered to a design philosophy of minimum weight and drag along with simple, inexpensive construction. The formula served him well through a series of sport and business aircraft despite the vicissitudes of the German aviation business climate. Messerschmitt became a fairly astute businessman, surviving bankruptcies, forced mergers and other government-inflicted indignities. It was a happy coincidence for Messerschmitt that the evolution of his designs reached a peak with the Bf-108 Taifun just as the Nazis were beginning the swift expansion of the German aviation industry. The Taifun won prizes all over Europe and set the stage for Messerschmitt's most famous design, the Bf-109 fighter. Presumed U.S. and English Language First Edition, First printing.
