Rudolf Hess escape 10 may 1941?

[Mirek Wawrzynski]

Rudolf Hess "escaped" from Germany to GB (Scotland) on 10 V 1941. He had used a Me 110.

I wonder if there are any more detail about his flight:

a) from where he took off (Berlin-Tempelhof)?
b) which plane he had used (I think it was not any regural unit's plane?
c) which time he took off?

Hi Marek,

He t/o from Augsburg in Bf 110D, W.Nr.3869, VJ-OQ at 5.45pm.
When over Scotland he was traced by Czechoslovak pair Sgt Srom and Sgt Bauman of the 245 Sqn as bogey. When in visual and attack range they were vectored out by control, and surprised much more next day when they opened newspapers and read it was Fuehrer´s deputy ...

Michal

Hello Mirek,

You can also try in Polish: Wołoszański B., Ten okrutny wiek cz. 2, Warszawa 1996. You will find there some photos taken by Karlheinz Pintsch - according to him just before last flight of Hess. Also some photos from the crash site are published. Code similar to NJ+QQ is visible.
