Revue de presse :
Forget the politics; this is an interesting account and well worth reading, particularly the chapters on test-flying the piloted V1 and Messerschmitt Me 163. --Aeroplane, July 2009
These books are simply splendid with many gems amongst the colour artwork to tempt us modellers. Thoroughly recommended. --Military in Scale

Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : New. Illustrated. The Sky My Kingdom is the fascinating autobiography of the famous World War test pilot - Hanna Reitsch (March 29, 1912 - August 24, 1979).As the war progressed, Reitsch was invited to fly many of Germany's latest (and increasingly desperate) designs, including the rocket-propelled Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet, and several larger bombers on which she tested various mechanisms for cutting barrage balloon cables. After crashing on her fifth Me 163 flight, she was badly injured but insisted on writing her report before falling unconscious and spending five months in hospital. Eventually she became Adolf Hitler's favorite pilot. Reitsch was one of only two women awarded the Iron Cross First Class during World War II, and the only woman awarded the Luftwaffe Combined Pilot and Observer Badge with Diamonds. She survived many accidents and was badly injured several times.In the last days of the war Reitsch was asked to fly her companion, Colonel-General Robert Ritter von Greim, into Berlin to meet with Hitler. The city was already surrounded by Red Army troops who had made significant progress into the downtown area when they arrived on the 27th April, landing on a city street, and traveled to the Fhrerbunker. The aircraft she used was the justly famous Fieseler Storch already well known for the exploit that rescued Mussolini, only adding to the legend of both Reitsch and that aircraft. She is said to have overheard Hitler laying out plans for Nazi commanders to join together in mass suicide when it was obvious that the war was over. She also hoped to fly out propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels' six children, who had been staying in the bunker since April 22 with their parents, but neither Joseph nor Magda Goebbels would allow it. She escaped Berlin on 29th April by flying out through heavy Russian anti-aircraft fire.She was a devoted and idealistic Nazi, who adored Adolf Hitler and refused to believe the reports of concentration camps and torture. Not until much later would she say that she had been "disgusted" by what she witnessed in the Third Reich. She was held for 18 months by the American military after the war, she was interrogated and subsequently released.After the war German citizens were forbidden from flying, except, after a few years, in gliders. In 1952 Reitsch won third place in the world gliding championship in Spain (and was the only woman who competed). She continued to break records including the women's altitude record (6848 meters) and became German champion in 1955.Table of Contents1 The Child that Watched the Sky2 I Take to the Air3 From Gliding to Powered Flight4 Medical Student at Kiel University5 My First Flight in a Storm Cloud6 I Become a Gliding Instructor7 The Rhn Soaring Contests8 Stunt Flying for the Films9 Soaring in Brazil and the Argentine10 The German Institute for Glider Research11 Training Glider Pilots in Finland12 Pupil at a Civil Airways Training School13 Flying at Night14 Across Europe to Lisbon15 Test Gliding16 A Bird Soars over the Alps17 First Flights for the Luftwaffe18 Flying Indoors19 A Visit to the USA20 Adventures in Africa21 My Home22 Test Pilot in Wartime20 The Iron Cross20 I Crash in a Rocket Plane20 Conversations with Himmler20 With the Troops on the Russian Front20 I Fly the V120 The Last Journey to Berlin20 I Live to Fly AgainPostscript.
