[Klaus Deschner]

Hello,
I would like to introduce my homepage: "Pilot fates in World War II, plane crashed within 30 km around Heidelberg" to you.
Below you can find the link:

http://plane-crashes-heidelberg.de/

The homepage is still under construction and information is still being added.
The homepage is for public use informing the interested over what happened then and to preserve the information for the future.
If you have addenda or further information for me they would be gladly appreciated.
The English translation will follow soon.
If you like you can forward the homepage to your friends and anyone interested.
Should you have any questions please contact me. I will gladly assist.
Thank you.

regards
Klaus

Klaus,

you should better sort you list by date and not by running numbers. Than you will better notice that you have some dublicates listed.

[Klaus Deschner]

Hi Merlin,
yes you are right for many cases. but i made the decision for me to activate the folder :Search on the top, with this folder you can search by date, name, unit, plane and much more.
again thank you for your help.
regard Klaus

Klaus,

Bf 109 list under no. 32: the title lists the aircraft as Bf 110 and the details show a Fw 190.

Hi Merlin,

thanks
Klaus
