Henschel HS 126

This latest photo album in the ""Camera On"" series covers in photographic detail the wartime usage of the Henschel Hs 126 aircraft. The Henschel Hs 126 was a German two-seater reconnaissance and observation aircraft during World War II. The pilot was seated in a protected cockpit under the parasol wing and the gunner in an open rear cockpit. The Hs 126 was highly regarded for its good short takeoff and low-speed characteristics which were needed at the time. This book contains over 140 photographs taken by ordinary German soldiers and aircrews of the day-to-day usage of the Henschel Hs 126 aircraft during the war.
