National Socialist Air Corps
The National Socialist Air Corps ( NSFK ) was a paramilitary National Socialist organization. The NSFK was created on April 17, 1937 by Führer decree . It was the legal successor to DLV e. V. ( German Air Sports Association ), which from 1933 to 1937 carried out the tasks of paramilitary training, initially in secret (1933 to 1935) and after obtaining military sovereignty within the scope of the military air raid reserve .
Until its dissolution in 1945, the NSFK was an independent corporation under public law and not - as many have claimed - a division of the NSDAP or affiliated to it (see also the law on securing the unity of party and state of December 1, 1933).
The NFSK was banned as a National Socialist organization by the Control Council Act No. 2, dissolution and liquidation of the Nazi organizations. The assets were confiscated and re-establishment prohibited. The NSFK badge is one of the anti-constitutional propaganda means in the FRG . Its production, public wear or distribution is prohibited according to § 86a StGB .
Hundreds of pension applications from former full-time NSFK members were successfully sued in the 1950s. On March 27, 1957, the 1st Senate of the Federal Social Court recognized Karl H.'s appeal for appeal against the Federal Insurance Institute for Salaried Employees in Berlin and confirmed the status of the NSFK in its seven-page version.
In National Socialism
organization structure
The NSFK was directly subordinate to Reich Aviation Minister Hermann Göring ; It received its budget from the budget of the Reich Aviation Ministry (RLM) Office 4 / General Aviation Office (Ministerial Director Willy Fisch ). All equipment, buildings and systems were imperial property, as was previously the case in the DLV.
The Reich Minister of Aviation entrusted the active duty Air Force General Friedrich Christiansen (from 1943 Colonel General Alfred Keller ) with the management of the NSFK . The geographical distribution of the 17 NSFK groups was based exclusively on the military district division and not on the districts of the NSDAP . Each of the 17 groups was divided into up to eight standards , these in turn into storms with a minimum strength of 120 men.
Membership in the NSFK was voluntary, and its members could not belong to the SA , SS or the NSKK at the same time .
Corps command - headquarters
The corps command was in the Großadmiral-Prinz-Heinrich-Str. 1–3 in Berlin W35. It comprised the following departments:
- Administrative office
- Central Department
- Gliding
- Modelling
- technology
- Powered flight
- Balloon sport
- Military sport and national political training
- staff
- Press

Clothing and rank system
While the blue-gray service uniform of the DLV, which was introduced at the end of 1933, was seamlessly integrated into the air force uniform by exchanging the mirrors, the NSFK uniform and the rank system used in the NSFK were strongly based on the storm department . In this structure, too, an SA-like uniform including the party's brown shirt and SA-like rankings were worn. In addition, a belt with shoulder straps and the NSFK organization badge were worn on the right breast pocket.
The ranks of the NSFK were (in ascending order): NSFK man, Sturmmann, Rottenführer, Scharführer, Oberscharführer, Truppführer, Obertruppführer, Sturmführer, Obersturmführer, Hauptsturmführer, Sturmbannführer, Obersturmbannführer, Standartenführer, Oberführer, Brigadführer, Group leader, Obergruppenführer, honorary leader .
education
In principle, all kinds of air sports in the German Reich were carried out according to the guidelines of the NSFK corps leader ( Führer decree of April 17, 1937).
On the basis of an agreement between the corps leader and the Reich Youth Leader , the young aviators were systematically brought in and trained from aviation classes in schools (according to the Reich Ministry for Science, Education and National Education ). Initially recorded in the working groups of the German Young People (DJ), the ten to 14-year-olds were instructed in model making and model flying. At the age of 14 to 18 years passed on to the air sports troops of the Hitler Youth (HJ), the construction of gliders and gliders as well as the practical training on them went on. When he reached the age of 18, he was automatically taken over into the storms of the NSFK for the purpose of further training in gliding and finally in powered flight on small aircraft. In addition, the Fliegerkorps provided training to become an on- board attendant , radio operator and aviation personnel. The group of people who had transferred to the NSFK was automatically recorded by the military registration offices and supplemented with an aeronautical assessment by the relevant NSFK instructors. According to their qualifications, tens of thousands of young men were called up to serve in the German Air Force .
Even after the start of the war, hardly anything has changed in the tasks of the NSFK.

Aircraft
In autumn 1933, the German Research Institute for Glider Flight (DFS) , which had emerged from the dissolved Rhön-Rossitten-Gesellschaft (RRG), was commissioned to monitor and organize German gliding. This also included testing and developing new glider and glider types for pre-military school operations. The best-known representative of glider planes was the SG 38 (Schulgleiter 1938) as the successor to the SG 33 and SG 35. Each new aircraft was tested, assessed and approved by the DFS before an RLM order was placed with the relevant manufacturer.
Due to the increasing threat from Allied fighters from autumn 1943, the gliders of the NSFK groups also had to be provided with camouflage. Even school gliders - provided with olive green camouflage marks - were not safe from fire in the air or on the ground.
Production numbers
During peacetime there was still plenty of construction in its own workshops, but after the outbreak of war mass production started to meet the rapidly increasing demand. Bruch was not rebuilt, only fittings and parts were recycled.
The industrial production was controlled, planned and awarded to licensees (also in the occupied areas) by the RLM (special committee F33). In the months from January to November 1944, seven manufacturers delivered a total of 2,046 glider and glider planes to the NSFK supply points in Worms and Trebbin .
In detail:

A total of 17,737 gliders and gliders were produced.
Gliding
In addition to the 7 large Reich sailing schools, when the war broke out in 1939, the 17 NSFK groups had a total of 451 glider flying sites with around 3,000 flight instructors at their disposal, on which several thousand Hitler boys received their first flight training. With around 1,500,000 take-offs and landings, 40,299 A, B and C exams were taken in 1939.
Reich sailing schools
The head of the leadership office of the NS-Fliegerkorps, Arno Kehrberg, wrote in 1942 about the Reichsegelflugschulen: “The young pilots who grow up from the training companies at these glider training centers are, as far as they have proven themselves in flying, sent as a selection to the Reichsegelflugschulen, which are also everywhere in the Empires are built. Above all, this includes:
- the Reichsegelflugschule on the Wasserkuppe , the "flying castle of German youth", also
- the Reichsegelflugschule Eisenach ,
- the Reichssegelflugschule Rossitten on the Curonian Spit in East Prussia,
- the Luftwaffe Gliding School Neuhausen 2 via Königsberg / Pr. ,
- the Reichsegelflugschulen Grunau in the Giant Mountains in Silesia,
- Hornberg in Württemberg,
- Spitzerberg near Bad Deutsch-Altenburg a. d. Danube (near Vienna),
- Hummerich (on the hill of the same name near Kruft in Pellenzgau),
- Schwangau and
- Zell am See in the Alps,
- Ith near Hanover
- Lattice (Schäferstuhl) near Salzgitter am Harz,
- Grünz - Wartin in Pomerania,
- Fischbek near Hamburg,
- Trebbin near Berlin
- Rhinow near Rathenow,
- Laucha on the Unstrut ,
- Borkenberge near the Ruhr area,
- the Hesselberg in Franconia ,
- Ballenstedt am Harz and
- the Teck on the Swabian Alb. "
All facilities were imperial property - but the land was often only leased. Only the schools in Grunau, Ith and Sylt were available to “non-NSFK members” and persons from abroad. All other places were closed to the named group of people for defense reasons.
The situation after 1945
With the Control Council Act No. 2 of October 10, 1945, the Air Corps was banned by the Allied Control Council and its property was confiscated.
As part of the preparations for the Nuremberg trials , the US prosecutor ruled out charges against the full-time members of the NSFK. In the preliminary hearing of November 22, 1945, after examining the available files, he declared that well-known organizations such as RAD and NSFK could not be included in the group of "other National Socialist organizations"; thus he released her from any charge. In addition, the official Wehrmacht discharge certificates (D2 certificates) of the Allies in the last paragraph showed the NSFK as a Wehrmacht division.
Since the majority of the former full-time NSFK members were still in professional life in Germany before the release of gliding (1951) or motorized flight (1955), the problem of the pension issue was still insignificant. An increase in the number of retirees was not expected until the late 1950s.
As a precaution, the "Interest Group of Former Air Corps Members" was founded in 1949 with the aim of:
"... while maintaining party political and denominational neutrality, to obtain the legal recognition of the members' rights to reuse and supply arising from previous employment relationships in accordance with Article 131 of the Basic Law and to represent the legal, economic and professional interests of the group of people organized in the association protect and promote, as well as help with the reconstruction of German aviation. It is divided into 18 district offices within the federal territory and West Berlin. "
In 1955, the interest group then became part of the “Association of former Fliegerkorpsangehöriger e. V. ”chaired by Arno Kehrberg and Gustav Bengsch.
Years of disputes with the Federal Insurance Agency for Salaried Employees led to a model trial before the 1st Senate of the Federal Social Court, which in its oral hearing on March 27, 1957, agreed with the plaintiff Karl H. and confirmed: “The plaintiff was a compulsorily insured employee at the NSFK. He was not a “worker in the service of the NSDAP”. The NSFK was not a division of the NSDAP, it was not even an association affiliated with the NSDAP. ”From 1951 onwards, the majority of the former flight instructors found employment again as voluntary trainers on the glider airfields in West and East Germany. Later, the Bundeswehr, founded in 1955, again offered secure jobs in the civil service.
