Hanna Reitsch
(or is is Anna
Kreisling?)

Subject:
Recon
flight
over the
US
during
WW II ?
This is a
great story
but is it
true? I
have been
doing some
digging on
Anna
Kreisling
and found
that it
might have
been a cover
name for
Hanna
Reitsch, a
famous
Luftwaffe
pilot.
There is
also some
doubt that
the Ju-390
had the
range to
make it to
NYC and back
let alone
fly over
Michigan.
One article
mentioned
the range of
6000 miles.
No matter
what, a
great story.
"Ju 390 V1
prototype
was unlikely
to have been
capable of
taking off
with the
fuel load
necessary
for a flight
of such
duration due
to strength
concerns
caused by
its modified
structure;
it would
have
required a
takeoff
weight of
65 tonnes
(72 tons),
while the
maximum
takeoff
weight
during its
trials had
been 34 tonnes
(38 tons)."
"It that it
matters,
given the
uncredibility
of PN's
picture
sourcing to
begin with,
but the lady
in the
picture
shaking
hands isn't
Anna
Kreisling,
but Hanna
Reitsch.
