Re: Me262 in French markings
Dear All,
Bertrand Hugot was kind enough to share with me the accident report for this incident. The wheels up landing occurred at 13h21 on Aug. 31, 1945. The problem appears to have been an issue of getting fuel to the engines, as the front main fuel tank still had 200 liters and the rear main 250 liters of fuel. While it is possible that the photos were taken on Sept. 6th, I would think that more likely they were taken the day of the accident. Regards, Richard
