Jane's WWII Aircraft


-

I was at a flea market this morning and I saw this book. It is an excellent reference book. And because it is in the English language (the flea market was in Germany) the guy sold it to me at a good price.
-
Of course I was interested in the British airplanes during WWII, the American ones like the P-38 and the Mustang. Also the AT-6 since I have flown one of these while I got a little training in aerobatics.
-
I also am interested in Professor Hugo Junkers since he lived a few miles from where I do now. He built the first all metal airplane.
-
In the book I found a reference to the El Paso International Aiport in 1943. At the time it was called Ed Anderson Field. I wonder who he was?
