German WWII gliders/drones - press clippings

[Gridlock]

Was going through some 1944-45 Aeromodeller magazines I have acquired, more from those later perhaps (fascinating stuff) but the original purchaser was obviously keen on his gliders so I discovered several contemporary (i.e. WWII) newspaper clippings referring to various German airframes.


So, posted in case they are of interest below.

Go.242 - easy prey, evidently.

OK so this is a Grumman Hellcat aka Barracuda, not so German.

Me.323 - text to follow.

"Glider" carries 130 men - 'RAF's Dream'

Henschel Hs293 - My favourite, because it could be written last week about NGAD (ish):




"Can be controlled by radio from parent plane"
