WW2 Luftwaffe test pilot Rudolf Opitz signed 1971 Rodgers Aerial Post US FDC. Comes with biography. Rudolf Pitz Opitz is one of Germany's most famous test pilots. Because of post-World War I aviation restrictions, he began his flying career in gliders. Born in 1910, he built his own glider in 1934 and soon was an instructor at Germany's famous Wasserkuppe flying school. Three years later he became involved in test flying and piloted many of Alexander Lippisch's glider and tailless aircraft. With the start of World War II, he joined the Luftwaffe as a glider instructor and, on 10 May 1940, flew in the predawn raid on the Belgian fort of Eben Emael-reportedly the strongest fortification in the world. In a matter of minutes, this first-ever use of military gliders in combat secured the fort and two strategic bridges over the Albert Canal, thus paving the way for the German blitzkrieg into the low countries. After this mission, Pitz resumed his test pilot duties and was assigned to the top secret Project X, a program to develop the world's first operational rocket interceptor-the Me-163 Komet. This aircraft was a tailless design that soon shattered all existing speed and time-to-climb records. Carrying only 4 minutes of rocket propellant, it was designed to take off and intercept high-flying bomber formations in just 90 seconds. After attacking with its two 30-mm cannons at speeds approaching 600 mph, the Me-163 became a glider and demanded extraordinary skills to relocate the field and safely land on the first pass. As chief test pilot, Pitz flew the Komet with its highly volatile rocket fuel and survived numerous near-fatal crashes. At the end of the war, he was Commander of the Second Group of JG 400, an Me-163 equipped fighter wing. Following World War II, he came to the US as part of Project Paperclip to work as an engineer and test pilot at Wright Field, Ohio. In this capacity, he participated in development and flight testing of rigid tow equipment to make it possible to tow cargo gliders under instrument flight conditions. Pitz, now a US citizen, retired following a 20-year career as a test pilot with Avco-Lycoming Company. Still active in soaring, he has over 9, 000 hours of flight time with more than 5, 000 dead-stick landings. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
