Do 335 flight by Schnaufer on 1st March 1945 - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

Hello,

Were did you get the info from that Schnaufer flew a Do 335 on 1st March 1945?
In the logbook of Schnaufer is noted that he flew a Do 335, number or code unknown, on the 24 February 1945 and again on the 25 February 1945. On both flights it was a two-seater, the second crewmember was his 1.Wart Ullrich (24 Feb.) and a certain Dobenschutz (25 Feb). Schnaufer took off from Gütersloh and landed there also on both flights, although it was only a matter of minutes that he flew the Do 335.
And I can only conclude that it was the Do 335 - V 10 in which Schnaufer flew. Fritz Rumpelhardt remembered that this Do 335 was transferred to I./NJG 3 in the vicinity of Hamburg. Is this correct? I do not know.
Since 1999, I have been researching the career of Schnaufer, a new book about this research has been published (in Flemish/Dutch). Fot further info see at www.heinzschnaufer.be

All the best,

Wim
