I am at a loss here.
The phrase (appeared in the LEMB thread)
Quote:
(...) an unknown training unit, sometimes referred as FFSB1, which, among others, trained the pilots of I. Gruppo Caccia ANR between October 1944 and the first week of January 1945

make it looks like it was widely known that "FFS B1" was the unit that trained the ANR pilots in Holzkirchen.
Maybe I'm starting to suffer from loss of memory, but to me this wasn't a granted fact, as all the Italian documents and accounts available never mention the name of such unit, as the whole activity in Holzkirchen was devoted to training and Italian pilots always associated their training to the airfield, rather than to a particular unit.
Add to this (my fault) that my knowledge of Luftwaffe training units is next to zero, so there is how the whole picture developed...
I am certainly happy to collect such new info and photographs, but I a bit wary that assumptions could have been made through the whole process without too many confirmations. For instance, it escapes my mind how these two Bf 109s (47 & 33) could be connected somehow to the "white 7", even considering only the different way and style of application of the code.
But, as already underlined, in this field I'm nothing more than a student, so...
