Re: Airfields of the Luftwaffe

Hvala vam, Sinisa!

I agree. I think it was an open field, pasture, meadow that became a convenient and useful landing ground mainly because it was undeveloped and unknown to the Allies. There were a number of these in those final months of the war where the Luftwaffe had to improvise to avoid being spotted and strafed on the ground. It probably had a woods along one or more sides along which the aircraft could be parked and somewhat concealed with evergreen boughs and netting. Not having access to the photo, my comments are just speculation.
