Jagdverband 44 was a Me262 unit formed by Adolf Galland in the closing months of WWII, the Me262 was very vulnerable during takeoff and landings due to the slow speed of the aircraft at this stage, so a Protection Flight or Platzschutzstaffel was formed of Focke-Wulf 190D9s and at least one D11. This unit was called the Wurger Staffel, Sachsenberg Schwarm (after it's lead pilot Lt. Heinz Sachsenberg) or in later times Papegeien (parrot) Staffel. Red 13 was flown by lt. Klaus Faber and was the only aircraft of the Wurger Staffel to claim an aircraft shot down (a P-47, shot down on a courier flight) Scheme consists of RLM76/23/OO undersurfaces with RLM 82/83 and mottling of RLM 02/81/82 uppersurfaces Thanks to ICDP for the template.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
