Re: 1./ Versuchsverband des O.K.L. - May 1st 1945

Here is Uetersen's landing area in May 1945:
.......................
Dimensions: approx. 1000 x 1145 meters (1100 x 1250 yards) with an irregular shape.
Surface and Runways: Grass surface with paved hangar apron and paved taxiway. No paved runway. Equipped with flare path, perimeter lighting, obstruction lighting and the short form of the visual Lorenz system for night landings.

The last units there were III./NJG 3 (to May 45) and Wekusta 7 (to May 45).

No Me 262s. Besides no concrete runway, the landing area was only half that needed for an Me 262.
