Re: Me-262 loss, 18/4/1945, Prague-Kbely?
Jerry,
According to Brown et al. (2010), p. 58, six US pilots filed claims for a total of 4 Me 262 shot down and another 2 damaged. Actually, only one Me 262 piloted by Lt. Ulrich Wöhnert, was shot down by Maj. Donald Bochkay, 357 FG, 363 FS. The claim filed by Capt. Charles E Weawer is not documented by any known German loss.
Brown et al. (2010): Brown, D., Janda, A., Poruba, T., and Vladar, J.: Messerschmitt Me 262s of KG & KG (J) units, Luftwaffe over Czech territory III, JaPo.
Cheers
Marc
