Original RLM document related to Horten aircraft ?

[edwest2]

It looks authentic but the highlighted reference is confusing. The seller claims it is related to the Ho 229 or Horten H IX.

Quite funny ... "Ho.22.IX" means "Hoffmann, 22.September" (the shorthand expression of Major Hoffmann and the date of his personal entry) ... to know the German language would be very, very helpful ...230 $ is to high (regarding the content of the document 10 - 20 $ would be good) ...

Thank you. Your reply was most helpful.

Verlagerung der Hydraulikabteilung (of the Fluggeräte ELMA Factory) is the main subject of the letter, which means that the department that takes care of the hydraulics is moved to another site. They speeded up the move and indicate which things have already been completed at the time of writing.

They also indicate why the Fahrwerksentwicklung (development of landing gear) hasn't been able to be relocated yet...

Not worth such a price, I guess...
