Waldmünchen / Bad Heilbrunn (christl-marie-shoulder blog) - Why are there so far in Bavaria no Christl-Marie-Schultes Street, no Christl-Marie-Schultes-Weg and no Christl-Marie-shoulder seat? This question raises the authors Ernst Probst and Theo Lederer, which just released the paperback "Christl-Marie Schultes. have published the first aviator in Bavaria "(GRIN).
Christl-Marie Schultes (1904-1976) learned in 1928 from such famous women as Liesel Bach, Elly Beinhorn, Vera Bissing, Hanna Reitsch, Melitta Gräfin Schenk von Stauffenberg and Beate Uhse, born Köstlin, flying. Because of their origin was from a family of foresters they "Ranger Christl" called. In their adventurous flying life there were ups and downs.
Maria Rosalia Schultes came on 6 November 1904 as one of four children from the second marriage of the Bavarian Forest manager Otmar Schultes peace rock with Theresa Schulte, Koller was born in Munich in forest Geigant (Upper Palatinate) to the world. From 1907 the family lived in Schultes Oberenzenau in Bad Heilbrunn (Upper Bavaria), where the father had been transferred.
learned in 1928, the adventurous Christl-Marie without the knowledge of her parents in Berlin-Staaken flying. Under the so-called A bill she received soon after the aerobatic certificate. With a borrowed engine from its flight school, she joined airshows in the province , and was cheered as the first Bavarian aviator.
In March 1929, Christl-Marie bought with the financial support of the City Tölz and their parents in England, a private plane, they should fly for Bad Tolz and its operating baths advertising. This machine was on 4 August 1929 in the name of "Bad Tölz" baptized. So they stepped up to the German air idols Ernst Udet and Gerhard Fieseler, both at home and abroad. Solely with the air show in Munich, estimated admired 50000-150000 viewers inside their flying skills.
In the summer of 1930 the aircraft was "Bad Tölz" during a flight over the Fichtelgebirge of a Gewitterbö to Bottom torn and shattered. Christl-Marie and her passenger escaped unhurt. Soon after, she received a second plane, called "Bad Tolz.
The crash of Christl-Marie in the Fichtelgebirge prevented their planned participation in the Europe-flight in the summer of 1930, where she had been the only German pilot. Was not achieved after a long flight scheduled for November 1930 Japan. In the spring of 1931
Christl-Marie wanted to achieve together with the young pilots Gustav Sackmann from Cannstatt the bold plan for a flight around the world. But the two fell on 21 May 1931 during a storm in an attempted emergency landing in Schaibing near Passau (Niederbayern) and was seriously injured. In this accident lost her left leg Christl-Marie and had to wear a prosthetic leg now.
was from April 1933 Christl-Marie his own magazine called "German Flugillustierte" out. Because they are not the "Nazi" and had joined a Jewish fiance, she was confiscated by the Nazis. In the following years she was monitored by the "Gestapo."
After the death of German President Paul von Hindenburg, who had been their patron, Christl-Marie emigrated to Switzerland in August 1934, 1936, first to Spain, where civil war broke out soon, then to Portugal and finally to France.
In France, half-Marie Christl poor children and persecuted, until they are arrested and brought to the internment Brens. After 14 months in this camp, she was deported in 1942 to Germany, came to the Ravensbrück concentration camp, but was due to the help of an apparently released in SS man she fell in love again. Her work in the aircraft industry, they lost in March 1943 for "political unreliability."
In spring 1944, Christl-Marie criticized in the post office in Bad Tolz and then when driving from Bad Tolz in Bad Heilbrunn in a packed bus, the "Nazis" and called on soldiers to not to go to war. Then they wandered in Germany, in October 1944 before she voluntarily Authorities provided.
That Christl-Marie was not executed for military morale, she owed the Americans, who on 1 May 1945 with tanks in the prison yard of Munich-Stadelheim rolled. Christl-Marie has used even after the Second World War and over again for other people. For example, for German prisoners of war or for earthquake victims in Morocco.
On 9 March 1976 died Christl-Marie Schultes at the age of 71 years impoverished and forgotten in Munich. Her adventurous life would provide ample material for novels or movies, say the authors of Ernst Probst, a native of Wiesbaden Bayer, and Theo Lederer from Bad Heilbrunn. Both advocate that the services the first Bavarian pilot, with its "rich imagination" hurt sometimes, be duly appreciated at last.
