Really neat Ron!
For those of you who like this type of history,I just finished a great book on flying in 1930's Germany.."Flying is my Life" by Anna Reisch. She was one amazing Woman who rose to the top as a Nazi Test Pilot. During the closing days of the War in Berlin she flew a Feisler-Storch into Berlin as a passenger BEHIND and over the shoulder of the wounded and unconcious pilot. They were flying low and slow to be able to see the ground as the artillery fire was intense kicking up dust and Russian troops were able to shoot at the aircraft at will. Her feats of flying skill will put a lump in your throat. Quite an aircraft in the hands of such a Pilot. Jerry Burney
