Re: Me-262 loss, 18/4/1945, Prague-Kbely?

Regarding 17-4-45 the JG7 book says swarms of US fighters were attacking Saaz A/f (now Zatec) and four 262s of I/JG7 returning from a sortie flew into the midst of the attack and all were shot down on the landing approach. Only Oblt Hans Grunberg was able to save himself by baling out. The Me262 Combat Diary says Grunberg was leading them back to Prague and suggests that Uffz. Fick of 3/JG7 may have been one of the dead pilots.
