It's Langendiebach airfield. Source: Report A-328 from 5. April 1945.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

My comment on posts #749 and #754:

I´m in doubt that the Me262´s (see post # 748) were photographed at Brandenburg Briest. This airfield was occupied by the Russians on May 2nd 1945.
So no free access to this airfield for GI´s with their Jeep / DC-3 Dakota (seen in the background).

Does somebody know any postwar photos of Btandenburg Briest?

Best regards, Karl

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

#763 "Ju 88" is not that type. Tail just looks similar in outline (but fabric covered) and tailplane is set abowe fuselage top line. Italian markings on tail and fuselage.
Possibly Fiat RS 14 http://www.aviastar.org/pictures/italy/fiat_rs-14.jpg

And story here http://www.legallais.net/2012/03/epa...le-31-03-2012/

Most of the Ju 52 photos in #763 are inscribed 'Scilly 1943' on the back side. Of course, this should read 'Sicily'.

But what is correct: 'Sicily' or 'Tunis El Aouina'?

Hi Rudi,

The Me 262 in your post #774 seems to be W.Nr. 500516 at Riem.

Best regards,

Jim

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

I think you're right, Jim. Thanks for the feedback. Very much appreciated.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Regarding the Me 109 in post #785, this is the first time I've seen a black vertical line inside the white (or yellow) band toward the rear.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Also, Ed, the white in the upper wing cross on the same a/c seems to have been over-painted with RLM 79. That's new to me.

Cheers,

D.B.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Bf 109 G-6 "Schwarze 12", JG 27, said to be at Saint-Dizier, France, 15 December 1944.
On the right is Bf 109 G-6 "Gelbe 10" (?), JG 1, 3 or 53 (unit unclear as tailband color could be black or red).

Location given is kind of a mystery as those wrecks are not among the ones listed by Jean-Bernard Frappé in his 1998 book "La Luftwaffe face au débarquement allié".

Thanks RudiS !

An intriguing background for this wreck Bf 109 G-14/AS. Anyone able to decipher what was written on the back of one of the two airframe shots ?

I read the same except for "ugly" may be "crazy".

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Thanks for sorting this out, RudiS and Revi ! As for the third photo, location seems to be Neuschwanstein.
