Default Franz and Charlie interviewed

Anyone one who's any kind of aviation buff has heard of this incident. This is the first video I've seen besides my old VHS tape of a CBC news interview of the two of them in the late 90s.

A moving story for sure, and Franz wasn't the only Luftwaffe pilot to show mercy like that..

I should get the VHS tape interview that I have put on disk so I can put it on youtube. In one part of this interview Franz jokes "Ya..I should have shot him down..He keeps bothering me."
