      Unless it was nighttime, or the weather was bad, and you were running out of gas - then it was a sweaty nightmare, like a monkey f*ing a skunk.

                  What an excellent grouping!

                  That Flugbuch is an absolute gem of a piece.

                  Incidently, does the Bundeswehr issue Wehrpass record wartime service?

                  Regards Richard.
                  Always looking for Luftwaffe Kampfflieger related document groups. In particular anything to Kampfgeschwader 2.
