# 3350 no 1
FW-002 is supposedly a Lachassagne LA6 prototype .

Reference shows it to be a low wing aircraft , yet the photo appears to be a parasol,

with a differing landing gear as well...thoughts ?

Photos 8 & 10. B-24D-25 41-24294 "36/V" "Brewery Wagon", 376BG shot down by Flak near target ( Ploesti Aug. 1 1943). She is Olive Drab but others in the Group were Desert Pink/Sand. Group lost 3, one down in the sea en-route, one in Turkey and "36".

Artwork (both sides) was 3 happy men in suits waving beer mugs. Took off from Berka 2 Benghazi.

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
 

Hi all,

date is strange - is there any crash before WWII?

Hi Faenor. This is the same picture but the 1st Regt. wasn't formed until Jan. 1940 I believe; maybe the previous Command ? 271 Abteilung formed 26 August 1939 so I'm not sure.


Regards
Nick
