Re: "Bruchlandung" and "Notlandung" - combat losses or not ?
Hello,
I agree wirth Artie, both Bruchlandung and Notlandung can be caused by combat or non-combat reasons. I am more interested in the place where a Bruch/Notlandung happened. In my opinion a "Bruchlandung" (crashlanding) could only happen in the near vicinity of or at an airfield. A "Notlandung" (emergency landing), on the other hand, could happen everywhere. According to my theory a crashlanding is a direct result of a pilot error, system/engine failure, combat... in the landing phase. An emergency landing is caused also by the above mentioned reasons, but in the flight phase. Has anybody found any german documents that could exactly define this terms? regards, Tomislav |
