Come on guys, I expected more from you....:-)....read my book on page 73 a little bit more carefull...

First, I stated Bär flew a D-9, but I did not state that he flew WNr. 205267, as that is a A-9 Werknummer.

The logbook of Bär (does anybody know who has the original by the way...?) does not clarify this issue either. As type of aircraft Fw 190 Do is listed for 1.1.45. On 18.12.1944 (his previous flight) Bär flew a Fw 190 with Werknummer 205267 (therefore an A-9). However, this Werknummer is only listed for his flight on 1.1.45 with " to seemingly indicate it's the same aircraft. However, why is there than Fw 190 Do written as type of aircraft for 1.1.45????

Furthermore, two pilots of the Stabschwarm independently from each other wrote that Maj. Bär flew a D-9 on 1.1.45. Those two pilots did not have contact which each other at all after the war, one never attended any veteran meetings.

To me the evidence is clear, Maj. Bär flew a Fw 190 Dora on 1.1.45. If it was a D-9 or D-11 or... I don't know.

Cheers,

John.
