FINE, HEAVILY ILLUSTRATED NSFK FLYING MODEL AIRPLANE BOOK FROM 1942

Text and images copyright © 2025 by USM, Inc.
This is a fine Second Expanded Edition of the heavily illustrated 1942 Nazi book about model aircraft called Modellflug im NS-Fliegerkorps written by NSFK-Standartenführer Gustav Bengsch and NSFK-Hauptsturmführer Wilhelm Haas.

The book starts with a full-page portrait photo (shown below) of Der Korpsführer des Nationalsozialistischen Fliegerkorps General der Flieger Christiansen. Facing his portrait is a Preface by Friedrich Christiansen in which he stresses the important role of National Socialist Flying Corps model airplane flying as part of pre-military service aviation education.

Nazi model building tools
According to General der Flieger Christiansen, this book is a helpful tool in teaching the basics of aviation, as well as theory and practical foundations, so that young people with an interest in flying will join the Luftwaffe voluntarily in the future. He also suggests that aviation teachers should use Modellflug im NS-Fliegerkorps as a “guidebook and road map” to create more enthusiasm in young German boys and men for flying, and to help them understand that a bigger and greater Germany in the future has to be a “Flying Germany”.

The illustrated chapters cover using Modellflug in the framework of pre-military service aviation education, the development of Modellflug, the Reichsmodellflugschulen (RMFS) run by the NSFK (where young German boys and men could study model airplane aviation to qualify for membership in the Hitler Youth or NSFK depending on their age), Modellflug education for the Deutsches Jungvolk, drawing model airplane plans, how to read model airplane plans, model airplane workshops, painting model airplanes, model airplanes with gas engines, rubber band powered model airplanes, flight stability, self-steering and remote steering models, how to build model airplanes, etc., etc.
