Hans Dittes

Was pondering what I would do with a EuroMillions jackpot this morning, and thought it would be nice to have a Spitfire/Buchon display team, and wondered…

…is Hans Dittes still about these days?? I’m assuming so. He always used to fly the Bf109G-10 that is now owned by EADS/MBB, and of course while it was in its Buchon guise, too, for Piece of Cake and Memphis Belle.

Anyone??

Oh feck…! :rolleyes:

I have absolutely NO idea what made me think Hans Dittes! Although I couldn’t think for the life of me who owned the Buchon at the time. That’ll be why!! :rolleyes:

Thanks for the correction, chaps!

Anyway, does Mr Eichorn still fly these days?

(And I had the day off today. Long weekend… 😉 )

Yes, he does fly, at least occasionally. I saw him Saturday 01. September flying with his AT-6 (or Harvard IV?) in a 2 ship formation with his son, Toni. They came for the Breitscheid Airshow on 2.nd September.

P.S.: It´s Eichhorn

Hi Daz

I thought it was Walter Eichorn that flew the Hans Dittes ‘Buchon’ in Piece of Cake with Nick Grace and Reg Hallam and in Memphis Belle with Ray Hanna

Cheers
