Description:
The Henschel Hs126 was a classic high-wing Luftwaffe STOL army cooperation aircraft. Like the British Lysander, it proved too vulnerable in wartime operations, and was quickly relegated to training and glider tug roles,
but it had a renaissance later in the war as a night attack bomber on the Eastern Front. Covers the type's development and operations and covers its service in Spain, Latvia, the Soviet Union and Greece. Illustrated with more than 350 previously unpublished b/w wartime photos, 30 color photos of
engines and airframe remnants, 50 color profiles, service manual diagrams and 1/72 scale plans; Orange Series; Panek and Peczkowski. 208 pages.
