I agree with Eric Mc, it is important to remember all of the outcomes of ‘total war’ if for no other reason to help prevent anything like this happening again.
John Maynard in one of his usual rants in the ‘other’ magazine once said that we should show no remorse or regret for the bombing campaign. I believe that regret for the necessity of the raids is appropriate.

there is a short chapter in ‘Testing for combat’ by eric brown ISBN 1-85310-319-5, with two front three-quarter views from port and starboard

I don’t think he was very impressed with it to be honest!

Time for a gratuitous pic of S1581 I think!

Still one of my favorite aircraft.

I don’t know if this is of any use – taken from the interplane strut of Shuttleworth’s Triplane reproduction

I agree with Andy about the Puttenhams books

I also have found the following as excellent starting points for further research:

Warplanes of the Third Reich by William Green, various editions, but mine is ISBN 0-356-02382-6

The complete book of Fighters by William Green and Gordon Swanborough (although it isn’t as complete as they say!)
Again Various editions, mine ISBN 0-86288-220-6

All of Eric Brown’s books … Wings of the Luftwaffe, Wings of the Navy etc.

Many of Airlife’s books are worth looking at
