Mysterious Landing of Ju 52 in Moscow on 15.04.41?

At the Central Airport in Moscow there was a mysterious landing of Junkres Ju 52. The plane was flying over Russia along the route: Bialystok, Minsk, Smolensk, Moscow. This landing in Moscow caused a huge stir among the Russians, it was connected with the fact that the flight has demonstrated significant deficiencies throughout the system PWO (Soviet Air Defence). There have been responsible for the resignation of the whole mess of people.

The flight of this aircraft was not accidental. It was probably a courier plane (???). On board it could be transported a letter that Adolf Hitler wanted to urgently deliver directly and quickly to Stalin. In its content at the end of Hitler's letter he apologizes Stalin for the way he had delivered that letter. The letter had a date of April 14, 1941. So it is possible.


The history of flight is as well known in the Soviet materials - it is certain that such an aircraft arrived in Moscow on 15 April 1941

1. Does anyone know anything about this flight from the German side?

2. From what units could be an airplane?

Regards,
mw
