The Sky My Kingdom
% ^tiding DiBratrg of The Sky My Kingdom To many the name of Hanna Reitsch will already be familiar. She was the woman air ace and test-pilot who flew almost every German military aircraft during the war, from the famous Focke-Wulf 190 to the vicious rocket Me 163, which shot up to 30,000 feet in ninety seconds. She played an important part in developing the suicidal piloted Vis with which the Nazis at last desperately sought to stave off their inevitable defeat. She it was too who flew into Berlin in April 1945 with the new Chief of the German Air Staff, and was one of the last people to see Hitler alive in his bunker. In Germany she is almost an legendary figure; and by any reckoning she is one of the greatest pilots the world has known. This is her own story. It is one of the most illumi nating war-books that have come out of Germany, giving as it does an insight into the plans of the Luft waffe at many stages of the war. Yet it is more than a war-book, for Hanna Reitsch's extraordinary career as a test-pilot was only the most dramatic phase of a life which has been wholly devoted to flying. She is in a real sense a child of the air age, and the sheer joy of flight, whether in gliders or in powered aircraft, has seldom been so vividly communicated as it is in these pages.

50 Jahre REUSS Jahrbuch Der Luft- Und Raumfahrt
50 Jahre REUSS Jahrbuch der Luft- und Raumfahrt * 50 Jahre Luft- und Raumfahrt in Deutschland * 50 Jahre REUSS - Eine Dokumentation von Arno L. Schmitz November 2000 2 Statt einer Einleitung Deutschland in den zu Ende gehenden 40er-Jahren war ein Land noch voller Not, Trümmer überall! Langsam begann das so genannte Wirtschaftswunder zu greifen, der Aufschwung begann – insbesondere nach der Währungsreform vom 18. Juni 1948. Jeder Deutsche be- kam ein Kopfgeld von 40,00 Deutsche Mark (was etwa der Grundausgabe einer Woche entsprach) und später nochmals 20,00 DM. Der Parlamentarische Rat konstituierte sich in Bonn, die Westalliierten schränkten ihre Demontage ein und gaben die Idee auf, Deutsch- land im Zustand eines nicht-industriellen Landes zu halten. Deutschland konnte sich wie- der „einrichten“. Armes, deutsches Volk, du hast Städte gebaut, hast Dome gebaut, du hast einen frei- en Bauern auf freien Grund gestellt, hast auf dem Gebiet der Kunst, der Wissen- schaft, des Rechts, der Sprache Höhen erreicht. Du hast die Hansa, hast Zünfte, hast das freie Gewerbe, hast mannigfaltigen Ausdruck für deine Wesenheit gefunden und deine Militärorganisation kann allenfalls als ein Zug deines Gesichtes gelten, als ein Ressort deiner gesamten gesellschaftlichen Verfassung. Dieses Ressort hat sich auf- gebläht, ist mächtig geworden, hat alles in sich einbezogen. Es hat alle Dämme nie- dergerissen und ist über die Landesgrenzen hinweggeschwemmt, und der Bauer hat von seinem Land, der Arbeiter von seiner Arbeit, der Priester von seiner Gemeinde, der Lehrer von seinen Hörern, die Jugend von ihrer Jugend, der Mann von seiner Frau lassen müssen, und das Volk hat als Volk aufgehört und ist nichts als Brenn- stoff für den ungeheuren rauchenden Berg, und der Einzelne ist nichts als Holz, als Torf, als brennbares Fett und zuletzt eine ausgespiene schwarze Flocke. -
