The Heinkel looks as if it's W.Nr. 8037 (or possibly 8057) — see attached image detail.

Re: Captured German planes, not from eBay
 

It's indeed 8037. This is He 111 H-16 S3+EM which was captured in Mönchengladbach (which was called München-Gladbach back then). A plane which has been photographed very often but this is the first time I see its Werknummer. Now that this is known, the Stammkennzeichen SM+KD can be decyphered on its wing undersides (it was partly overpainted). Thanks Marc and Nick!

Thanks to you ChristianK, and to Nick, of course; one more case settled.

A machine in 4./TGr. 30 markings that late in the war is interesting because the Staffel itself didn't exist by then, as far as I know.

Dear Gang,

Though known since a long time, here again a few photos made by R. H. Dibnah during his service time, most probably in Germany, Spring 1945. First, the known locations:

Fw 190 A-8 W.Nr. 350210 "Weisse 5", II./JG 54, found at Lüneburg, April 1945:

Ju 87 D "??+J?" and Ju 88, Wunstorf, after 19 April 1945

Ju 87 D-5 Werk Nummer 140736, V8+JB of 1./NSG 1 (Nord).

Ar 234 half destroyed and put up as a decoy

T9+KH (W.Nr. 140349), almost certainly the “Me 262” claimed on the ground at Rheine by F/L Dick Audet of No. 411 Squadron (RCAF) on 23 January 1945.

Re: Captured German planes, not from eBay
 

Thanks so much, Nick ! It is highly appreciated.

Now we have only the Bf 109 K-4 "Weisse 24", the Fw 190 and the Fw 200 seen on the other photos to localise.

Cheers
Marc
