Hi Bronco09c, I have one more question. At the end (5:15 -... ) of this part the heli flew over GDR territory south of Steinstuecken, an exclave of Berlin. Can you remember why? Regards Michael
@mectub76 Michael, to tell the truth, I have no idea. These were regularly scheduled “wall flights” and I was given the opportunity for a fly along; I was not part of the air crew. I’m guessing it had something to with enforcing/exercising some agreement between the four Allied powers. I’m certain the pilots wouldn’t have crossed over in to the DDR if there was a chance of being shot down or causing an international incident. Regards, Brian
