Re: JG 301 mission on 17 Dec 44
Thanks Jerry & Nick --
A "Vergleichsfliegen" could have been a comparison flight with another type of aircraft, but since this one lasted only 19 minutes it was probably to check out new equipment in his airplane. It wasn't a Feindflug, so he wasn't on the 5 Dec combat mission he describes in his book. So we're left with no good candidates for the mysterious "17 Dec" flight.
Gosh, this is fun.....
