Hey Indian,
I happen to find "Fighting Aircraft Of World War II" in the library several years ago. Checked it out, renewed it several times.
This book covers US, British, Germany, Japanese, French, Italian, and ... have I forgoten a country.
Anyway when I first came across the Macci C.205, I thought "Wow, what nice lines".
And performance to match.
You ought to try and get a copy. I finally found and got a softback at Borders a few months ago.
