Re: Fl.Ü.G 1 pilots
Hi!
According this site: http://www.ww2.dk/air/misc/flug1.htm Gruppe Nord was formed on 23.9.43 in Elbing with 1. - 4. Staffeln. There is known any other info about presence Fl.Ü.G. 1 Gruppe Nord on this airfield? How long stationed or about their equipment (any transport a/c for gathering a pilots?). I suspect this Gruppe being responsible for transfering Bf's to Finland. I found single ferry flight of Bf 109 G-6/Trop W.Nr. 411520 (Erla - Lepizg) Stammkennzeichen RW+VQ: Anklam-Elbing: Mar 7 1944 10.15 – 11.30hrs, Elbing-Riga: Mar 14 1944 14.05 – 15.40hrs, Riga-Malmi: Mar 16 1944 12.15 - 13.30hrs, Malmi-Kuorevesi: Mar 16 1944 14.40 – 15.25hrs, In Finland a/c became MT-402 and served in 3/HLeLv34 (from 4th Apr 1944). This a/c belonged to 411XXX series bulild on autumn(?) 1943 (I guess the built up time on basis some details showing on photo: low tail, loop antenna, cockpit canopy older type but with Gallandpanzer). If it's true I wat to ask: it is a normal situation, that delivery a/c from factory to the combat unit takes few months? |
