Re: new research - readiness state, losses and logistics
Hi, Ed
It more or less seems to have been the case - that requests were made directly to the Luftpark - possibly via the Luftflotte - but that they did not keep a very tight leash on this. I would assume that the mounting losses due to the involvement agains England - and the corresponding continous demand on the Luftpark for replacements were an issue in developing a new system, and I will follow this issue when I return for my next research visit in Freiburg. I guess you can imagine the situation when a pilot appeared at the Luftpark to pick up an aircraft that his colleague down the road just took off in - because two different clerks had 'given' two different units the same aircraft... Regards, Andreas B
