Know your ICAO codes…;)
I can name myselfe “HOLLYWOOD”
but my place will stay Langenfeld, Germany 😉
Rules can be exposed even flight ban zones
An example: My family owns a holiday home in the direct flight path of teh former NATO airbase Pferdsfeld EDSP/ETSP. My father a “Fluzeugführer” in WWII (FW 190, Me 109, 110, 262 and several other planes) did manage to get a permission flying with his Piper Arrow at least fifty times around our house there…
So I think a no diving zone could not really be the problem.
I am very often in Holland, at Noordwijk aan Zee for work and holiday and especially the people of Holland I know are very polite and helpful of specific issues e.g. it´s strictly prohibited to drive with your car onto the beach. I am a photographer and got the permission to drive with my beachbuggy onto the beach for one photosession
So there is no trouble I just put a team together to make the rescue of 44-62100 happen and catching information for this!
@ EHVB:
Thanks a lot for your reply!
Sorry but there is one point you are wrong: I AM INTERESTED and willing to bring her back without any matter if she´s 50 cm or 50 meters below…
A detailed description where to find 44-62100 is still missing…
Too sad that you aren´t interested enough to help and be part of it!!
@ Anon: thanks alot for your reply and new ideas of ways to go for my search.
B-29s are not only very rare in Europe even in the whole world I think 😉
Because of this and to bring one more back to light I am begging here and in other forums for help!
The official answer of the USAF /USAAF (in short words) is that they don’t know anything, they aren’t interested in any B-29 anymore and if you find one you have to deal with the owner of the land/water the plane is on or in to take it…
Of course there are a lot of specialists or groups which are familiar with B-29 and their history but rather no one knows more about 44-62100 or wants to tell something about it…
especially by Mr. EHVB! I am very disappointed! 😡
You told so often in several Threads here you would know… you have to dive to and you will do… 30 meters or have it been 60… diving in this place is not alowed… bla bla bla!! Have you even been to Holland or seen the Scheldt?? :confused:
ok, once again…
After writing with the US AIR FORCE because of the rights of the ownership of 44-62100 I am back here and in several other forums too.
I am still very interested in where the B-29 is and to bring her back to daylight!
And again I am very thankful about any hint or even rumors helping to find her!!
@ EHVB:
It is very sad…
I thought you would know a little more about this plane and the place to find her. I may be wrong but it seemed bringing her back to daylight would be a big wish or dream of you too…
And once again: where can the article about this sunken plane been read?
@ all: is there noone else a bit more familiar with this b29 I am looking for?? :confused:
Happy New Year and a lot of Health!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
@ EHVB:
I´m very glad to welcome you!
There are so many different versions about 44-62100 and where she ditched or crashed even if she should have been sunk in western Sheldt between Vlissingen and Borssele there are differences about the depth of the water there. Several people wrote about 30 to 60 meter or in feet…
others who lived at his time there told me the Sheld wasn´t deeper than ten to twelf meters there…
Id really love to read your article about this mysterious plane
and if I know where she is i will try everything to bring her back to the sunlight!
Lübeck is more than 650 km away and the way from the western Sheldt to there is over land, where people live…
wouldn´t it be better to steer a dying plane into the open sea without risking an accident.
I think the statement of the British is a joke or just to keep the position of the missing plane dark…
Thanks again for answering and helping.
The first point of interest is where diched the plane or has it been as the papres wrote left by the crew by parachutes and crashed alone into the northern sea… :confused:
just searching!
A diched plane which is not too broken some friends (divers) told me is under water “flying” like in the air until it reaches the ground. In this case the B-29 if it is diched next to Vlissingen could have been dived into the open sea or the other direction towards Vlissingen-oost or Borssele.
Thanks for helping!
Thanks a lot I know this article…
20 miles from Brussels and a little bit more you are in the middle of the Scheldt next to Vlissingen…
The Scheldt is in this place about one and half a mile wide the perfect place for a plane like a B-29 to disappear.
In the papers from this time nothing is written about the bomber ditched. Maybe to keep it dark because of the beginning cold war???
Im very interested in what happened to the plane, and where it could be or where it is now!!
Please send all informations you have even the rumors.
Thanks for helping finding the european B-29!!
is there really noone who knows anything about 44-62100?? :confused:
