"Yellow 10" was captured by the Canadians at Flensburg at wars end. Maj. Heinz Lange, the Kommodore of JG 51 who flew D-9's, was asked by the RAF on June 25. 1945 (with Günther Josten, also of JG 51), to fly this advanced fighter against the Hawker Tempest in mock combat.
Do you know the name of the canadian pilot who flew the Tempest?
