No 29+ claim ace with JG 51 by the name of Meier

Possibly Rudolf Meyer 9./JG 51

Hi Rob,

Beware of internet lists, some are excellent, where as some duplicate errors.

Here are some other high scorers who appear on Luftwaffe ace lists.

Emil Darjes 82 kills
Karl Neumann 75 kills
Karl Hofmann 70 kills
Walter Lindner 64 kills

Unfortunately like Meier their claims can't be found in the RLM claims lists.

Best Regards

Andy Fletcher

Rob,

Aside from the listing in the appendix of the Aders/Held book, I have found no other evidence for this pilot.
