It may seem unusual, in the context of an air unit history, to focus on a single gruppe rather than its parent geschwader. Yet III./ZG 26, which entered the Second World War flying the Bf 109, enjoyed a remarkably independent operational career.

When Le Havre comes to mind, one's first thoughts turn to its port and the maritime activity that made its reputation. Few would imagine the ocean city with skies crowded with balloons, airships or fragile aeroplanes. Yet that was indeed the case in the age of aviation's pioneers. Since then, sometimes quietly, the aeronautical adventure of Le Havre has...

The Wekusta 2 was a Luftwaffe meteorological reconnaissance unit whose history has been very little explored. It deserves closer attention.

Simply the end of what they believed...
