PKeating Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 For members who might not have seen a DFS 230 assault glider. This was taken near Amiens during 7. Flieger-Division field manoeuvres in 1942. The pilot has levelled out from his steep dive, slowed by the drogue parachute, and is coming in to land.PK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stijn David Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Hello, Excellent picture Prosper, thanks for sharing. And here is a very similar picture where a DFS 230 is comming in with the parachute. (note: not all DFS230 's did use a Chute, this practice was only later in the war tested and effectively used. By using a stop-chute the glider could fly in a shorter track and land + stop faster.)Cordial greetings, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
