Description
Deutsch: Douglas C-47A/B 'Skytrain' in Fürstenfeldbruck, 1967, zu beachten die Nietreihen und die stark verschmutzten Stoßfugen der Rumpfschalenbleche.
Eine Douglas C-47A/B Skytrain der Bundesluftwaffe auf dem Flugplatz Fürstenfeldbruck im Jahr 1967. Die zur Erstausstattung der neuen Luftwaffe der Bundeswehr gehörenden 2-motorigen Transportflugzeuge waren 1956-57 größtenteils aus Beständen der RAF (Royal Air Force Großbritanniens) übernommenen worden, die Maschinen hatten bereits Einsätze in der Schlußphase des 2. Weltkrieges 1944-45 überstanden. Die 1967 in "Fürsty" fotographierte C-47A/B gehörte sehr wahrscheinlich zur FVSt 61 (Vermessungsstaffel des Fernmelde-, Lehr und Versuchsregiments 61), welches 1958 in Lechfeld mit Douglas C-47 (Kennzeichen XA-101 bis XA-110)*, Hunting Pembroke u. Dornier Do 27 aufgestellt wurde. Ab 1973 operierte die Vermessungsstaffel mit C-47 und Pembroke vom Standort Flugplatz Neubiberg b. München aus, ihr weiterer Werdegang ist (noch) nicht bekannt. (*)Zugewiesene Kennzeichen lt. Listung [1]: XA+111, +112, +113, +114, +115, +116, +117, +118, +119, +120 (2x), +123, +124 => 13 C-47A/B bei FVSt 61, die im Einzelfall bedarfsorientiert zu verschiedenen Zeitpunkten aus Transport- u. Schulverbänden zugeführt wurden.
English: A Douglas C-47A/B ‘Skytrain’ in Fürstenfeldbruck, 1967, note the rows of rivets and the heavily soiled butt joints of the fuselage shell panels.
A Douglas C-47A/B Skytrain of the German Air Force at Fürstenfeldbruck airfield in 1967. The twin-engine transport aircraft, which were part of the initial equipment of the new German Air Force, had been largely taken over from the RAF (Royal Air Force of Great Britain) in 1956-57 and had already survived missions in the final phase of the Second World War 1944-45. The C-47A/B photographed in ‘Fürsty’ in 1967 very probably belonged to the FVSt 61 (Survey Squadron of the 61st Telecommunications, Training and Experimental Regiment), which was set up in Lechfeld in 1958 with Douglas C-47s (registration numbers XA-101 to XA-110), Hunting Pembrokes and Dornier Do 27s. From 1973, the survey squadron operated with C-47 and Pembroke from Neubiberg airfield near Munich; its further development is not (yet) known.
