Ahoj Peter,

unfortunately maybe I was not so good in my question. My question is who, when and where from US Fighters claimed a Me 262 on April 27 1945?

Sorry for misunderstanding

Interesting...I thought it.

According to German Sources should be shot down Staka 7./KG(J) 6 Oblt. Henning Gulde during Mission on April 27 1945. He died next day in Prague hospital. The place of his crash should be West of Prague. But as far as I know there is an other possibility, because on April 27 1945 should be shot down by gunner of Ilyushin Il-2 of 3rd Groundattack Air Corps of 2nd Air Force of VVS one Me 262. But there are some differencies, because location is given as Area of Bautzen what is bit far from Prag.
