secret airfield near Schweinfurt?

Hi,

does someone have information about a secret airfield near Schweinfurt?!?

Old inhabitants told me, the German Luftwaffe had a secret airfield near Schweinfurt. The village next to the airfield was Schwebheim, and the
long strait road, which is connecting Schwebheim to Sennfeld, was used by german fighters to lift off.

Does someone knows something about that airfield or is it a hoax!?!?

Greetings

von Wolfberg

I've read the book by french fighter ace Pierre Clostermann, where he describes jumping german fighters taking off from a piece of "autobahn", with camouflaged hangars nearby... Don't remember if that was near Schweinfurt, though...

This were mysterious German airfields indeed. Only the German people can tell you about them if they want to.
