Re: Short video clip of luftwaffe taking off from waterlogged airfield, nearly leading to prop strike
Hi Adriano, sorry to use German terms without explanation, but you get the gist of it, a 'Fliegerdenkmal', or pilot's memorial, was when you wound up sitting on your prop, whereas a 'Damenlandung' was going right over on to the canopy, with the undercarriage lowered, so these represented the legs of the lady. And thanks for the encouragement with my relative, he actually served in many units, including Erg. Jagdgruppe 51 as CO.
