Me262 Cine-film Taken on 7 April 1945

[batura]

Gentlemen,

I am looking for the whereabouts of a cine film taken on 7 April 1945 at Brandenburg-Briest. The film shows the Me262s of 11./JG 7 getting ready before their mission of the day.

According to my sources, the film was taken by a mechanic of the unit. Several still images from the film have already been used in the following books.
Here are the pages in the two books:

*Page 697 at "Me 262 Volume 4" by Smith & Creek (Classic Publications)

*Page 169 and 170 at "Battle over the Third Reich" by Werner Held (Air Research Publications)

As I would like to use this film in a documentary movie, I would like to know the archive, which currently has the broadcasting rights.

I will appreciate any help you may provide.

Kind regards,

Batur A.

Several still images (5) also in Manfred Boehme's JG 7 Schiffer ed. 1992, but only one different from the others (but in this one there is another me 262). Caption is the same.

Good Luck for the search !

Hy Batur
I have scan the pic but you must consider that is the most blurred of the five still frames on the book.
