Re: Unknown Crashsite
 

HI Merlin,
this seems to be another top message, aiming at another region, Hohe Tatra.
I will try to find someone there who can confirm the mountain scenery. Anyway a great turn in our research.
I am interested in the GQM files. Are they free, where to get them?
Thx for effort, perhaps we receive a refering recent foto one day.
Best

Dear Jim,
due to all contributions we solved the crashite and the involved crew.
Yes you are right, it is the Tatra incident and my friend Peter Kassak from Slovakia has sent me this list, similar to yours:

Hi Roland
I register this a/c of Fl.Kp./Ln.-Rgt. 4 as crashed on 28.3.1942 in Salatin - Zverovka. The are is this hilly area located on the photos. the crew was:

Re: Unknown Crashsite
 

Seems it had not been recovered, no traces later...these birds of the Ln-Rgt were probably precious, so seems landing had been pretty hard, a piece of luck there for the crew...

Aside of this case, Wonder if anybody has spurs of the Wn 3915, because the next in the row NR+AG was Wn 3916.

And (from Ultra in 1940): Ju 52 W.Nr. 5903, NR+AB.

Re: Unknown Crashsite
 

You are right,Nick, so many Wn are missing there, Wonder if the 59xx Wn series has not been built before mid-39, the STKZ would hv been in that case given at the unit level , the Ln-Rgt, in fact quite all of the NR+A , prior 1942, has link with Ln/Rgt -KGr.100 , same for NN+O , NQ+A, TA+B
