Re: Fw190 units -24/4/44 Augsburg/Munich

Leo - the clash with Fw190s in 1215-1315 (NE Mannheim) were 4th FG who were flying a Free Lance Sweep.

I believe Sturmstaffel 1 is the unit I'm looking for in the 1320-1330 timeframe NE to E of Augsburg, attacking the 41B (2Task Force) en route to Erding, then south to SE Munich then due West to IP SW of Munich for target runs to Oberpfaffenhofen and Landsberg. The 3rd Task Force interestingly bombed first at Erding.

The Fw190 claims of two destroyed (one blowing up and one pilot bailing out- both witnessed) seems solid as claims in 1320-1330 and suggests StrurmStfl 1? Of course Me109ss have been id'd as Fw190s before and later..and vice versa

What is interesting to me also is there do not seem to be any claims of B-17s made by SS1 (or any other Fw190 unit in Munich area..
