Dear experts,
As Hitchcock's Ta152 book shows (and many other books, too)
30 Apr.1945 stab/JG301 strength record reports
"2 Ta152C-1/R31s are serviceable at Welzow."
http://www.ronaldv.nl/abandoned/airf...spreewald.html
However, this website states the airfield,
"came under Soviet attack from day one, and was finally captured on 20 April."
Then, its quite unlikely any luftwaffe birds are serviceable on 30 Apr.
I suppose the strength records date or location, probably both are incorrect,
or the record only indicate "Ta152Cs are expected to be there", instead of
"Ta152Cs are there"...
Otherwise, simply the problem of the website date?
