According to a mate of mine, the victory roll was the Fw190 at Pembrey after a Nav SNAFU.
Genghis, I was mightily embarrassed at Erding (not far down the road from Manching) by another mate on the Last Starfighter trip... As the 109 landed the pilot (whose name escapes me but I have an idea he was a well known unlimited aerobatic pilot) received a well earned round of applause. "Just remember who won the war " said my by now ex-mate quite loudly... My wish to be somewhere else as rapidly as possible was somewhat hampered by the fact that he held our Dan-Air tickets home...
