Belly landing of He 162 120029
 

Good morning,

The earliest publication of these photographs that I could find are in Alfred Price's Warbirds No. 1: The Luftwaffe 1933 - 1945 Volume 1, (1981), on pages 64-65.

The caption reads:

"111,112 An He 162 which made a wheels-up landing during a training flight. The weakness of the light plywood and metal structure is evident. (Demuth)"

It is likely that Alfred Price obtained these photographs from Oblt. Karl-Emil Demuth of 3./JG 1.

Does anyone know where and when this crash took place, and who the pilot was?

Thank you,

Jim
