Re: Loss of Oblt. Georg Wedemeyer in He 162

Hi Kurt,

He 162 M6 W.Nr. 200006 VI+IF according to some sources was built with the straight wings that had stability problems. Its first flight was on 23 January 1945 with a BMW 003 E engine and was used for armament trials.

I do not know the provenance of the caption in "Wings Palette" but it ascribes the crash to a "jammed rudder".

best regards,

Jim Geens
