from Osprey Aviation on the FW190A3 that landed in England
Quote:
Faber made for the nearest airfield that he could see, but could not resist performing a victory roll and cockily extending his undercarriage while inverted, before touching down... at RAF Pembrey!!.
His intact FW190A3 was one of the major intelligence prizes of the entire war. Little wonder his tongue-in-cheek offer to take it back up and demonstrate to the RAF what it really could do - if they would just refuel it for him, please - was turned down flat!!
