Re: Glide of a Ju88
 
On the night of 3-4 March 1945, several Ju 88G-6 aircraft returning from Operation Gisela were abandoned by their crews in thick cloud over Germany. Research by Rod Mackenzie suggests that at least three of these aircraft flew on for over 100 kilometres after being abandoned, one crashing in German-held territory and two in Allied territory.
