Re: Mysterious Landing of Ju 52 in Moscow on 15.04.41?
Rather it was not Ju 52 from this part. The plane had been refuelled and the crew got "green light" to flight back to Germany.
Anyway the changes of internal procedures in PWO units were soon implemented. In May 1941 one passanger German "C-47" (this is exactly thn name of civil plane) was force landed on 43. IAD airfield - in Bialorussia. The order to force landing by 3 I-16s was given personaly by gen. Zaharov, when he saw enemy plane above his head. Of course it could not be a C-47 (military version of DC-3), but most probably it was a DC-2, which several were used by Germans. This "C-47" landing was a big political problem, and the crew after consultation Zaharov with marshal Timoszenko get permission to fly futher (to explain all in Minsk airfield). Regards mw
