Hi,
I'm trying to find the name of the pilot of the Heinkel He 115 floatplane used in the 1941 propaganda movie 'Kampfgeschwader Lützow' about the fictionalised bomber squadron. I know it's a long shot, but does anybody have the movie with full credits? It may include his name. I know he was a Luftwaffe Leutnant and I believe he was a test pilot. I may a have a copy of his photo album here and wanted to ID the man.
I also know that he went on to a stationing in Italy, apparently the sole German pilot alongside Italian torpedo bomber pilots and three Luftwaffe engineering officers. I have photos of him in civilian clothes with the Italian officers, in Italian civilian pilot uniform and of the Italian commander standing in front of an He 115.
Any leads would be gratefully received
Cheers
Larry
