Re: Shot down of Melitta Schenk countess von Stauffenberg - 8 April 1945
I dont think, that 1/Lt Thomas A Norboune identified the typ of aircraft wrong.
There are o lot of good visible difference between a Bücker Bu181 and a Fw190. Brake, the biographer of Melitta von Stauffenberg wrote in his book, that she was shot down in a low-level flight. But a low-level flight is only to make in good VFR conditions. Because it was the only documentated shot shoot down at this day, at this time and in this area, his conclusion was a mistake by the typ of air craft, in following of a similar view from behind. Ok, but which Fw190 going lost at this morning ? Its there a chance to clear up the fate of the unknown Fw190 and the Pilot ? Thank you for your help and support Greetings from Berlin Detlef |
