miamiangler Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 This aircraft was flown by Obslt.Fritz Auffhammer the Kommodore of JG301. Flown on 22 March 1945. He felt uncomforable flying a new type of aircraft because of the trigger happy flak crews shooting at unfamillar aircraft. He ordered it to be painted orange -red before his flight back to the Luftwaffe proving ground at Rechlin . He was escorted by Hptm.Roderich Cesctti flying an FW190D-9 "Green 1" Built in 1992 refurbished in Feb.2011 Willi Mebo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
