Re: Me262 and Ju188 Wrecks
"White 22" is photographed at Salzburg-Maxglan in summer '45. It belonged to JV 44 when the unit transferred from its bases at Hofoldinger Forst/Autobahn and München-Riem. The jet landed into a heap of gravel and the notoriously weak nose gear collapsed. When the remnants of the unit transferred to Innsbruck-Hötting the damaged Me 262 was left behind. "White 12" of JV 44 is similarily marked; it might have been one of the 500xxx series produced at Waldwerk "Stauffen" eastnortheast of Mtt Obertraubling
