BA.116 - Les Chasseurs de la Legion Condor

Dear readers,

Here we are, holding in your hands the latest issue of your magazine, Batailles Aériennes 116, dedicated to the Condor Legion's fighter pilots, written by Jean-Louis Roba. If I'm not mistaken, these 116 issues represent 29 years of publication... No so bad!

Of course, all this work, research, writing, and drawings (color profiles) are the result of collaboration. I would therefore like to thank all the authors and illustrators who have contributed to producing all these issues of Batailles Aériennes. In recent years, the number of authors has dwindled dramatically... to just Bernard Baeza and Jean-Louis Roba. I want to warmly thank them because without them, we wouldn't have been able to reach this number 116. Of course, they are continuing their work, which will be published as special issues of AVIONS magazine. But it will be easier to manage because it will be irregular, without a quarterly schedule.

Finally, I would like to thank all the readers who have followed us throughout these years; without you, none of this would have been possible! So, a big thank you to everyone.

Enjoy this final issue and see you soon for other projects...

Michel Ledet
