Re: Me 262 Pilot Claims

Hi Jim,

during the night, the highest number of claims in a single sortie, supported by documentation (that I know of) would be:

2-3 March 1945 - 2 certain & 1 probable. Pilot unknown but probably Welter. Actual RAF attrition was 1 Mosquito damaged.

There were a couple of instances of two claims:

21-22 February 1945 - 2 certain by Welter (followed by another certain claim during another sortie on the same night). RAF attrition was nil.

23-24 March 1945 - 2 certain by Becker. RAF attrition was 1 Mosquito destroyed, another damaged, and another that crashed in Holland due to an unknown cause.

Cheers

Rod
