Title: Feud of Hitler's flying frauleins: The Fuhrer’s two most prized test pilots were brilliant, fearless and female... but they also loathed each other

Melitta von Stauffenberg was a pilot and aeronautical engineer in Nazi Germany

During the war, her job was to perfect the Fuhrer’s Junkers Ju 87 dive bombers

Fellow test pilot Hanna Reitsch deliberately flew a Dornier Do 17 bomber into a heavy steel cable that tethered a barrage balloon to the ground

But as a new book reveals, the women were rivals and poles apart politically

Within the cockpit of the Stuka dive bomber, the pilot reached the top of the climb, rolled the plane sideways and tore down almost vertically towards the earth at 350 mph.

The engines howled, the wings whistled and the fuselage shook so violently that the instruments on the control panel were almost unreadable.

Astonishingly, given that this was macho Nazi Germany in 1941, the pilot was a woman. With her gloved hands, Melitta von Stauffenberg clung to the juddering joystick as the plane plummeted 10,000 ft.

Thanks for this one.

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken

Read Albert Speers book for a total view of Reitsch.

In very last days of Berlin, she flew Speer into and out of Berlin using a Platz.

"""Albert Speer, Ritter von Greim and Hanna Reitsch were allegedly the last visitors in the Führerbunker who managed to fly in and out of Berlin, using the makeshift runway on the Charlottenburg Chaussee (today Strasse 17 Juni)."""
