Holzkirchen Fighter School today
 

Hi,
Not long ago I happened to travel through Holzkirchen on my way to Munich.
I did not have the chance to ask the locals, so I post my question here:
does anybody know whether there's anything left of the WWII airfield and fighter school?

Thanks
FVW

maybe you mean the "flugplatz Oberwarngau, few kilomters south of holzkirchen ?

Re: Holzkirchen Fighter School today
 

Yes, it might be the one you're referring to - Although I am not sure since it was my first visit to the place. A friend of mine was taught to fly 109's there back in 1944.

i got the telephon number from an friend , who is living in oberwarngau.( not the person above)

Don't bother to phone. I do speak German and I will do it myself. Not immediately, though, since it's not urgent.

Thanks very much,
FFW

P.S.: by the way, I've just found the airfield's website: http://www.fliegerclub-warngau.de/
