You can read about the air combat at the following link: www.reservistenverband.de/bayern/rott/aktuelles/einweihung-des-erneuerten-Flugkreuzes-im-rotter-forstIn Rotter Forst, in front of the crash site of a Focke Wulf 190 fighter plane, there is a birchwood cross to commemorate the pilot who died here in 1944 found his death. As Mr. Matschke von Maikowski described in his speech, the German Focke-Wulf pilot engaged in a dogfight with a (twin-engine) Lockheed P-38 "Lightning" in which both aircraft received such heavy hits that both crashed: The German pilot in the Rotter Forst and the American pilot near Hochstätt. As is usual with soldiers' graves, the memorial cross was made of round white birch wood. Since birch wood is not durable, it had to be replaced again this year. The deep impact crater directly behind the cross is particularly impressive.
