The Douglas XTB2D-1 was one of a seemingly endless number of aircraft developed in the US during WWII which only flew in prototype form at or after the war. The end of the war, the change in requirements dictated by the course of the war, and the advent of jet propulsion insured that most of them never entered production. Author Bob Kowalski has gathered all the documentation he could find on this aircraft. His selection of photographs and manufacturer's drawings are supplemented by a short but very informative text. This aircraft had many very interesting technical features and Kowalski has tried (and mostly succeeded) to do justice to them all.

Operating from as far south as the Mediterranean to as far north as the Arctic Circle, from Russia to the coasts of France and Spain, the Luftwaffe's sea and float planes developed a loyal following that continues to this day. With nearly 250 previously unpublished photographs gleaned largely from private collections, the book presents a fascinating pictorial account of the aircraft from the 1930s through World War II. These rare and unusual photographs are accompanied by extended captions and commentary as well as each aircraft's operational service on various fronts of the war. Aircraft types covered include the Arado 196, Blohm und Voss 222, Heinkel 115, Junkers, and Dornier. This treasure trove of images will be enjoyed by historians and modelers alike.
