Not a place for advanced training with the Ar 96 but also no known Ar 196 units based there.
Well we have a conflict with the area here. According to Kommandobehörden und Truppenteile der Luftwaffe 1 bis 10 the FHB 1/IV was stationed at Poltawa and Shitomir end 1943!! The aircraft wether a Ar 96 or 196 was not for training, but for liason within the FHB!
