Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. First Lieutenant Wolfgang Wollenweber's WWII odyssey, from combat operations in the Me110 over Russia with the 'Arctic Sea Hunters', to pitting the extraordinary HE162 jet fighter against Allied fighters over Germany, and flying possibly the final Luftwaffe mission of WWII, may be the last great 'untold' story from a WWII Luftwaffe pilot.Posted to the Arctic front in 1943, Wollenweber flew ME110s on escort missions and ground attack, shooting down several Soviet aircraft in the process, for which he was awarded the Iron Cross First Class. As the fortunes of the war turned against the Third Reich, Wollenweber volunteered for defence duties and soon found himself training to fly the lethal Me163 Komet rocket fighter, before being transferred to the innovative 'wonder weapon' - the He162 Jet Fighter.The He162 'Volksjaeger' (People's Fighter) was meant to be capable of being flown by members of the Hitler Youth with only rudimentary flying experience, but instead turned out to be an unforgiving machine in untrained hands and whilst Wollenberger himself became one of the most experienced He162 pilots, he witnessed the brutal human toll it exacted on the unwary or unlucky. And as one of the few pilots to have flown the He162 in combat, he finally settles the vexed question of whether the He162 ever shot down an Allied aircraft.Wollenweber describes in his own words the shocking truth of the last desperate days of the Third Reich, and does not shy away from describing the horrors he witnessed and naming the corrupt and incompetent individuals he came across. This is a vividly told story and an important inside account not just of the revolutionary He162, but also the changing fortunes of the Luftwaffe - from happy hunting on the Russian front to its final disintegration over a destroyed homeland.

Condición: Sehr gut. 188 Seiten mit Zahlreichen Abbildungen nach hist. Fotos im Text. Oberleutnant (Ing.) Wollenweber flog während des II. Weltkriegs die verschiedensten Flugzeugmuster, darunter zwei Maschinen wie sie unterschiedlicher nicht sein können: Den zweimotorigen Zerstörer Messerschmitt Me 110 und den Turbojäger Heinkel He 162. Nach seiner Flugausbildung wurde er zum Jagdgeschwader 5 an das Eismeer versetzt, flog bei der berühmten 'Dackelstaffel' Geleitschutzeinsätze über dem Nordatlantik, Bombenangriffe gegen Murmansk und russische Flugplätze und schoss innerhalb kurzer Zeit mehrere russische Flugzeuge ab. Für diese Leistungen wurden ihm das Eiserne Kreuz Erster Klasse, die Frontflugspange in Silber und das Mannerheim-Kreuz verliehen. Es folgten die Verlegung nach Herdla, Einberufung zum Studium an der Luftfahrtakademie, seine freiwillige Meldung zur Reichsverteidigung und die Umschulung auf die Jagdflugzeuge Focke Wulf Fw 190 und den Raketenjäger Messerschmitt Me 163. Seine wohl aufregendsten Einsätze flog Wolfgang Wollenweber gegen Kriegsende mit der Heinkel He 162 als Staffelführer des Strahljägergeschwaders 1. Nach den utopischen Vorstellungen der Führung sollte dieses revolutionäre Flugzeug sogar von Hitlerjungen geflogen werden, was der He 162 den Namen 'Volksjäger' einbrachte. Jedoch stellte die völlig neuartige Konstruktion, die unter Zeitdruck und Mangel an Rohstoffen gebaut wurde, derart hohe Ansprüche selbst an erfahrene Flugzeugführer, dass die meisten von ihnen schon bei ihrem ersten Einsatz tödlich abstürzten. Daher grenzt es fast an ein Wunder, dass er 14 Flüge mit der He 162 überlebte. Dieses Buch entstand in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Biografen Horst Kube und erzählt die Geschichte des letzten lebenden Zeitzeugen, der dieses außergewöhnliche Flugzeug geflogen hat.
