Re: Loss of Me 262 A-1a WNr. 170305 9K+BB on 6 February 1945?

Hi Dan,

In my opinion it is a gold mine. The subtitle is "Die Chronik des Kamfgeschwaders 51 'Edelweiss' zwischen dem 1. Januar 1944 bis Kriegsende". At least two-thirds of it is devoted to Me 262 operations quoting flugbuche and daily unit reports. Be aware that Horn differentiates A-1a as having four MK 108s and A-2a as having two MK 108s but both can have bomb racks and can be changed at the unit level. He is not being sloppy when the same werknummer is referred to an A-1a and then an A-2a at different times. The book is pricy but in my opinion worth it.

Jim
