dornier do 335

Pfeil

by heinz nowarra, ed mloney and uwe feist

an excellent, now out-of-print,  technical monograph on the most unusual aircraft to come out of the Second World War

 

This out-of-print 1966 book* describes one of the fastest propeller-driven fighters of the Second World War. Designed by Claudius Dornier to specifications set by the German Air Ministry in 1942, it incorporated a radical push-pull twin-propeller, twin-engine concept which Dornier had patented in 1937. Foot-dragging at the ministry was largely responsible for the construction and testing delays which plagued the prototype Do-335. Not until the fall of 1944 were 10 aircraft placed in operational service (one of which was spotted by French ace Pierre Closterman, who mentions it in his book). This excellently researched work details the numerous variations on the original Do 335 theme, from a two-seater night fighter version to the A-4 high-speed recce aircraft.

 

*) We are aware that Schiffer published another book on this aircraft by the same author in 1989. We are unable to compare the contents of the two books, but believe “out-of-print” definitely applies to this 1966 original edition that we are auctioning.

 

First edition, published by Aero Publishers of Fallbrook, CA in 1966.

Stiff pictorial paperback, 11 by 7 1/2 inches, approx. 50 extra-heavy pages. With numerous b/w plates, 4 color plates of profile views and many rare historical photographs and cut-away drawings. Condition: a one-owner, well-cared for book, with few traces of use, mainly light rubbing and chipping on the the spine (former owner tipped-in a vintage photograph of an airfield sown in the book). Otherwise a good-as-new copy; no inscriptions, underlining, tears or stains.

Widerrufsfolgen
Im Falle eines wirksamen Widerrufs sind die beiderseits empfangenen Leistungen zurückzugewähren und ggf. gezogene Nutzungen (z. B. Zinsen) herauszugeben. Können Sie uns die empfangene Leistung ganz oder teilweise nicht oder nur in verschlechtertem Zustand zurückgewähren, müssen Sie uns insoweit ggf. Wertersatz leisten. Bei der Überlassung von Sachen gilt dies nicht, wenn die Verschlechterung der Sache ausschließlich auf deren Prüfung - wie sie Ihnen etwa im Ladengeschäft möglich gewesen wäre - zurückzuführen ist. Für eine durch die bestimmungsgemäße Ingebrauchnahme der Sache entstandene Verschlechterung müssen Sie keinen Wertersatz leisten.
Paketversandfähige Sachen sind auf unsere Gefahr zurückzusenden. Sie haben die Kosten der Rücksendung zu tragen, wenn die gelieferte Ware der bestellten entspricht und wenn der Preis der zurückzusendenden Sache einen Betrag von 40 Euro nicht übersteigt oder wenn Sie bei einem höheren Preis der Sache zum Zeitpunkt des Widerrufs noch nicht die Gegenleistung oder eine vertraglich vereinbarte Teilzahlung erbracht haben. Anderenfalls ist die Rücksendung für Sie kostenfrei. Nicht paketversandfähige Sachen werden bei Ihnen abgeholt. Verpflichtungen zur Erstattung von Zahlungen müssen innerhalb von 30 Tagen erfüllt werden. Die Frist beginnt für Sie mit der Absendung Ihrer Widerrufserklärung oder der Sache, für uns mit deren Empfang.
Ende der Widerrufsbelehrung
The buyer is responsible for return shipping costs.

Refunds by law: In Australia, consumers have a legal right to obtain a refund from a business for goods purchased (but not at auction) if the goods are faulty, not fit for purpose or don't match description. More information at returns.
