Re: Fw Schellknecht's kill claim
Hallo Leo, Nick, John
I don't question that after 20 may 43 staffeln of I./JG26 were divided between several airfields, but I've doubts about that particular case of Fw. Schellknech. The same very day of his claim another pilot of his unit, Fw. Willius claimed soviet LaGG in Pl. Qu. 35Ost/63 253, which is evidently in the area of Orel. And Schellknecht died in crash due to engine failure in Pl. Qu. 35Ost/62 158, in my opinion operating from Orel-West.
