Re: Ta152 loss
 

Hello
Now you can watch the combat films by Short, Brooker and Shaw from April 14, 1945 on the Internet. In Short's last sequence you can see a piece of an airplane on the far right. The type is not recognizable, and according to the facts it can only be a Ta152. Brooker and Shaw attacked a Fw190, which Shaw shot down. In Brooker's combat film you can see the burning Fw190 (not a Ta152!!!), which he himself is still shooting at. He also films the burning crash site. The village in the background of the flying, burning Fw190 is definitely the village Dargard. The flight direction of the burning Fw190 is in the direction of the village Garlin. The impact point can be clearly identified as the mill ditch near Garlin. This proves that Brooker and Shaw were not in aerial combat with the Ta152 and therefore never shot down Sattler. The link is https://film.iwmcollections.org.uk/record/25145.

Brooker's film started at 11:20. In the settings at the bottom right, set it to 0.25X so that the film runs slowly.
