Hello Frank,

a quote from "LUFTWAFFE IM FOCUS" Vol. 29:
End of April - During an airfield defence flight in support of aircraft of I. and III./JG 301 taking off from Hagenow, Ofw Hugobert Langelotz of 11./JG 301 was killed when his flight was attacked from above by enemy fighters. It is not known if Langelotz was flying a Ta 152 on his occasion.
According to the loss table in Reschke’s JG 301/302 book he flew a Fw 190 A-9.

Regards
Leo

This was RAF zone.

Franek; What do you mean by RAF Zone?

When was OFW Hugobert Langelotz born?
If I know that, I could ask in the Federal Archives for a personnel file

This means that RAF operated in Hagenow area, so must have been RAF fighters, not US.

According 2nd TAF, Vol. 3 (Shores & Thomas) RCAF 401, 402 & 412 Squadrons destroyed and damaged several Fw-190s at Hagenow on 19 April 1945.
So in R(C)AF zone indeed.
