Focke-Achgelis Fa 330 - the successful pilot ?
Good evening Gentlemen,

the Focke-Achgelis Fa 330 of submarine U-177 was used to spot the Greek steamer Efthalia Mari on 6Aug1943. This sighting with the subsequent sinking was the first military success of a helicopter. Who was the pilot on that occasion ?

Cheers,

Michael
