On August 28th, at Noon a Junkers JU-390 was sighted over the Empire State Building flying at an altitude of 6,000 feet. The two Luftwafe pilots were Hans Pancherz and Anna Kreisling. Al Simpson from the NEW YORK TIMES took more than 18 pictures of this large six-engined Recon bomber. This JU-390 Recon Aircraft was custom built for this mission in February 1943, it had eight huge fuel cells in the fuselage and only a four man crew. It carried no bombs or guns and it could fly 18,000 miles without refueling.

Did the Germans fly over Chicago in World War 2?

Yes! This has been confirmed by the New York Times and Newsweek. The Junkers JU-390 Recon aircraft flew over Chicago on the morning of Aug. 28th at 8:30 in the morning. The Pilot in command was Hans Joachim Pancherz and the Co-Pilot was Anna Kreisling, The White Wolf of the Luftwaffe. This Junkers had taken off from Norway on August the 27th and penetrated into Canada. Then swung south and photographed important Defense plants in Michigan. On the way to New York the Junkers JU-390 passed over Chicago because Hitler wanted detailed aerial pictures of where all the American Gangsters lived. Near Chicago were also important American Tank and Aircraft factories! This Junkers JU-390 was seen by three formations of AT-6 Training aircraft that morning. One AT-6 flew within 65 yards of the cockpit of the JU-390 and reported that a gorgeous Blonde was blowing him kisses! He took several pictures of her as she waved to him! These pictures of the famous BERLIN BABY Junkers JU-390 were labeled TOP SECRET by the OSS and later the CIA.

Why did Japan want to build the Junkers JU-390?

The Japanese were impressed with the Junkers JU-390. It could fly from the German Bases in Odessa to the Japanese held fields in China. Starting in late 1943 the Junkers JU-390 would deliver secret jet engines and other valuable weapons and on the return flight carry exotic metals, uranium, and even rubber. Also this is the way Japanese and German officers carried Top Secret information. In March 1945 a Junkers JU-390 flew to Tokyo by flying over the North Polar regions. This is verified by Albert Speer who wrote about this flight. Anna Kreisling was in Japan at the time and flew back to Germany on a different Junkers JU-390. Japan was working on a Nuclear bomb and the Junkers JU-390 was the bomber they wanted to use the Atomic Bomb on Los Angeles and Hawaii.
