Mildenhall Air Fete 1979. Operated by WS10.

The He 72 Kadett looks rather like the Fw 44 Stieglitz, but the main landing gear is very different and there is a strut supporting the tailskid. According to the German Wikipedia, He 72 production terminated in 1937 after 768 airframes, including 495 built by Fieseler. It also says that 629 Kadetts remained in Luftwaffe service in 1940, and 417 in January 1944. The Werknummer (c/n) on the tailfin looks like 426 in this and another photo but I'm not sure. It is certainly three-digit, which would indicate a Fieseler, not a Heinkel c/n. The badge belongs to Flugzeugführerschule A/B 24, which was based in Olomouc, Czechia for most of WWII.

In 1985 just a few Tornadoes were still in their original grey-green camo.

Once preserved on Airport roof terrace. This Airframe was built and delivered to USAF with s/n 51-1733, operated by 401 FBG and 366 FBW , then transferred to Luftwaffe on march 1959. Previously coded in Germany as DE-255, DE-378, DE-126 and DE-374.

The 45th anniversary of the German flight test center was the reason for this colourful Bavarian-style scheme.

Red 6 recovered in 2003 on display at Planes of Fame. Built in 1939 as an E-1, this combat veteran participated in the Battle of France and BoB. It was converted to an E-7, carrying a 300L drop tank or as a Jabo with an ETC 50 or ETC 500 bomb rack. The Emil went to newly formed II./JG 5 'Eismeer' on 22 Mar 1942 at Petsamo and was flown by Lt. Wulf-Dieter Widowitz. While on an escort mission, it was shot down on 4 Apr 1942 by a 2nd GIAP Hurricane Mk.IIb. Widowitz put the aircraft down on a frozen lake. The 36-victory ace was killed on 28 Jul 43 while piloting a Go-145A from Kirkenes to Petsamo.

This Fishbed was originally 948 with the NVA but became 2243 after German re-unification. It is stored in the garden of an embroidery service in this small town close to the Czech-Polish border.
