Re: SG4 losses on 24-12-1944
After a long period of research, it seems that Fw. Vogel was shot down by 354th FG at about 10:00hrs in the morning of Dec. 24th, 1944 at Seffern, Germany. People still remember the date and the time and after an excavation of the a/c it showed up as a FW-190.
There were always doubts, if the pilot was Zotöterer, Kohbus or Vogel. But now, Vogel seems the one in question by evidencies. Best wishes ! Horst Weber |

Zotlötterer came from Vienna and work for the City of Vienna Administration. Last I hear from him is 8 years ago.

Danke! A friend of mine found a record of a Heinz Zotlotterer's funeral on 6 August 2006. Hoping it isn't him. If Herr Zotlotterer is still alive, it would be wonderful to see if we can fly him to the US to be reunited with the prop blade of his airplane. v/r Jonathan |

I have been looking for photos of Ofhr. Heinz Zotloterer's Fw190F-8 from 24 December 1944 online, but I have not found any. Would you be willing to share the photos you have? I am working on an exhibit centered on one of the propeller blades from this airplane, which we have at the Air Defense Artillery Museum. Thanks very much! Jon Bernstein |

Re: SG4 losses on 24-12-1944
Bringing this one back, now that we’re redoing the propeller exhibit. Does anyone have a photo of Zotlotter’s Schwarze 10 after it crashed? I know I have seen one, but I cannot find it anywhere. It would be great to be able to display a photo of the airplane next to its propeller blade.
Thanks! Jon |

Hello Jon,
in "Luftwaffe im Focus" edition no. 8 is an article about the fate of Ofhr Heinrich Zotlötterer on 24 Dec 1944 with two fotos of the belly-landed "black 10". Regards Leo |
