He70 Pilot name (in 1934)
I have three different spellings for a He70 pilot :
Schnuhave Finuhage Schnuhage He was flying the He70 D-AHUX that crashed on 3 November 1934 in the south west of France, near Carcassonne, on its way to Rio, from Stuttgart. which one is the good one ? Thanks for your help. GC |

Re: He70 Pilot name (in 1934)
Gilles,
A Dutch newspaper of 5.11.1934 adds to the confusion: it tells of Schuschage.. Flight engineer apparently Kriegbrünner (?). But, wasn't the He 70 D-UHUX instead of D-AHUX? Regards, Leendert |

Gilles,
Did some further browsing and found in a German newspaper (I think they are best placed to spell the names here...): Fliegerkapitän Schneehage. Regards, Leendert |

Re: He70 Pilot name (in 1934)
Thanks, Leendert,
yes, you are right, it was D-UHUX and the second occupant was Kriegbrünner. Browsing the German newspaper as you suggest would be a good idea, and I look forward to some German friend helping me in this regard. Have a nice week-end GC |

Re: He70 Pilot name (in 1934)
With the name Schnechage I found an item in the newspaper L'Est Republicain of 5 Nov 1934: pilot Heinrich Schechage and engineer-radioman Fritz Branner...
Getting closer of more confused? Regards, Leendert |
