Sonderkommando Bienenstock

[Jock Auld]

Guys,

You may remember I got this flight combi so I was in the parish again on Sunday and thought I would be cheeky and go and ask for the name of the pilot as this was a yard sale purchase as such.

Well as it transpires there is not much to research as it has been mostly done and published in 'Saft's' book about the end of the Luftwaffe.

His 'buckshees'  reside in a Luftwaffe museum in Berlin.  The rest has been sold off peace meal and nothing now remains, the family have kept modern copies of original prints?

I was however able to secure a few original pictures of the pilot and one of them is published in the book, spot of luck but sadly I was too late as the most had already been sold and these were the left overs.

He continued flying post war and rubbed shoulders still with Gallant etc(see Pic)

He reached a good age and had a relatively quick passing according to the family.
