Re: A New Me262 picture taken in Hötting?

Dear all,

this is "Red 1" of KG51, flown by Lt Haeffner (2.KG51) on 10th April 45 from Leipheim after having handed over his old ship "9K+OK" to JG7 at Oranienburg some days before. Information comes from his flight log.

Lt Haeffner then took over "Red 2", which he flew until handing it over to JV44 at Munich Riem.

"Red 1" may also have reached Munich-Riem before flown out to Innsbruck to escape American capture.

Tailtip and number is in red, both with white trim as already stated by Roland.

I also know the photo of "Red 1" seen behind "white 12"

Karl
