Franz Federbusch combat?
 

Searching for details regarding regarding the shooting down of Franz Federbusch possibly during the early part of January 1945? Franz passed away in hospital on the 24.01.45. Can anyone help us please.
Any further info regarding the combat, aircraft type and unit of Franz would be really appreciated.

Kind regards

Melvin

Hmm, I did name searches in most of my main tables with no matches. Any idea what type of unit he may have been with?

Jim, you had it -- just not a combat loss.

Bf 109G-12 WNr.19333, BK+YK of JG 112
Ofw. Paul Meier (F)/ Gefr. Franz Federbusch (Sch)
Both injured 29.Aug. 1944 in crash due to technical failure, near Landau. 100% loss.

Hope this helps, GRM

It never occurred to me to look for a Bf 109G-12........

Hi guys, I was starting to panic! The info I recieved, which was sparse came into us from a relative. I appreciate your effort Jim, but GRM you have surpassed yourself!

Thanks again,

Mr. Brownless,

You're welcome, but your thanks are really owed to Jim, for, being a school-related loss, it's entirely likely he's the one who added this one to our db. We made a conscious decision years ago to include "everything," for while the fighter planes attract the most attention, we didn't want the more-obscure aircraft types to 'feel neglected.'

"Research is ongoing." We do appreciate your thanks.
