It's funny how you'll always see wehraboos try to hype up the V-2 and to a lesser extent the V-1 (if they're really deep in it maybe they'll bring up the Fi 103R and Hanna Reitsch as some kinda "the Nazis were progressive/better at progressivism than anyone else" gotcha) but never the V-3.
Even in the minds of the most twisted and delusional military larpers online today there is no justifying the V-3.
How the fuck did that shit get funding. Nazis were idiots, man.

An Arado Ar 96 (not this one) was the last plane flown out of Berlin in WW2. The great Hanna Reitsch was the pilot and her passenger was Robert Ritter von Greim. Greim was ordered to Berlin and Hanna flew him in through Russian fire in a Fieseler Fi 156 Storch (Stork) on 26.4.45.
The plane was hit and damaged but she landed it safely. Hitler then promoted von Greim to Generalfeldmarshal and new chief of the by now non existent Luftwaffe. This situation was masterminded by Martin Bormann, who convinced Hitler that Reichsmarshall Hermann Göring was a traitor and had him arrested and dismissed.
Reitsch pleaded with Hitler to allow her to fly him out of Berlin but the Führer refused. Reitsch wanted to stay with Hitler in the Führerbunker. However, Hitler ordered her to leave on 29.4.45. As the Fi 156 Storch she flew in was too damaged to fly out, the Arado Ar 96 was the last flyable plane available in Berlin to fly out. For more, see my Facebook group - Eagles Of The Reich

Letters from WS to Hanna Reitsch and Count Bernadotte, and a handwritten letter seemingly from Reitsch.
WS asked Reitsch to help contact Bernadotte and thanked her for the sweets. (Explaining how he put on weight in the International Military Slimming Club Nuremberg.)

Canadian organizers of an international celebration of women in aviation are standing by their decision to honour the late Hanna Reitsch, who was the first woman to fly a helicopter — and, some historians say, an unrepentant Nazi.
"She was an amazing pilot," said Mireille Goyer, the founder and president of the Institute for Women of Aviation Worldwide (WOAW), the group co-ordinating a week of events now underway, timed to coincide with International Women's Day.
[...]
Reitsch's biographical sketch on WOAW's website makes no mention of her Nazi past, including her close relationship with Adolf Hitler, who awarded the Luftwaffe test pilot with the Iron Cross, first class — the only woman to receive that military distinction.
The WOAW site does link to another website with a short biography of Reitsch that refers to her being a "star of Nazi party propaganda."
"She's remembered as the first woman to fly a helicopter, a jet, a rocket," concurred Jean Allman, a professor of history at Washington University in St. Louis and the author of a paper on Reitsch's Nazi past and her post-war colonial activity in West Africa.
"But notoriously, she is remembered for very close connections to Adolf Hitler — and being the person who flew the last plane out of Berlin at the close of the war."
Goyer said the details of her Nazi past were left off the website because WOAW is "not into making a political statement." She explained that Reitsch went on to do other things in her life, including opening an aviation school in Ghana.
But Allman said Reitsch did nothing to champion the rights of girls and women in Ghana, refusing to train women at the school. Moreover, she never accounted for the critical role she played in the Nazi regime.

Hanna Reitsch – Pilot doświadczalny III Rzeszy z Jeleniej Góry

La storia di Hanna Reitsch
Hanna Reitsch nacque a Hirschberg, nell'attuale Polonia, il 29 marzo del 1912.
Fu una grande sostenitrice del nazismo e venne nominata Capitano per la sua importante attività di collaudatrice di veicoli civili e militari, tra cui il primo elicottero pilotatile. Il 28 febbraio del 1944, propose a Hitler la creazione di un corpo speciale che fosse equivalente ai kamikaze nipponici, il vento divino che aveva disseminato il terrore a Pearl Harbuor e nel Pacifico. Il Furer tuttavia non rimase propriamente entusiasta della sua idea.
Evidentemente aveva una certa propensione alle missioni spericolate, dato che si propose come collaudatrice della Reicherberg, la versione con cabina di pilotaggio del razzo V-1: praticamente una bomba con le ali che sarebbe dovuta andare in dotazione al reparto speciale della Luftwaffe soprannominato Squadriglia Leonida. Il programma semi-suicida (i piloti si sarebbero dovuti lanciare con un paracadute dal seggiolino di compensato presente nell'abitacolo in prossimità del bersaglio), tuttavia non venne mai realizzato, nonostante vennero fabbricati 175 esemplari di questo macchinario infernale.
La Reitsch fu la prima donna insignita della Croce di Ferro di prima Classa, una delle più importanti onorificenze di guerra del Terzo Reich. Nel 1945 atterrò in una strada di Berlino distrutta dai bombardamenti alleati per fare visita al bunker di Hitler, dove provò a convincerlo, inutilmente, a mettersi in salvo. Mentre si trovava nel ultimo baluardo nazista assistette anche alla reazione del Furer ai fatti di Piazzale Loreto che venivano raccontati via radio: non esattamente una reazione composta e affettuosa nei confronti degli (ex) alleati italiani.
Dopo la guerra, l'aviatrice fondò scuole di aviazione in India (invitata da Indira Gandhi) e Ghana (dal presidente Nkrumah). Conquistò anche numerosi ricordo nel volo a vela: quello di altezza e di distanza e fu anche la prima donna ad attraversare le Alpi in aliante.
Morì, a causa di un attacco di cuore, nel 1979 a Francoforte sul Meno.
