Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Hello,

Post #358, does anyone else read the GI’s location on the back of several of these photos as being outside of Stotel? (53.445368 8.596309).

Thanks in advance for your input.

Respectfully,

Steve Sheflin

Dear Steve,

Either one reads "hotel" or - correctly so IMHO - Stotel, close to Cuxhaven. Thanks for pointing this out.

Cheers
Marc

Thanks for the Munich and Hofoldinger Forst shots; the Bf 109 was the only one found a that location. It was later towed to Brunnthal and scrapped there: https://www.flickr.com/photos/280920...7631643557344/

As for the boneyard shown in the second batch of pics, they do depict Fw 190 D-9's and a lone Ju 87 D wing. Location has been ID'ed by Steve Sheflin as Stolten, close to Cuxhaven, Norther Germany.

Cheers
Marc

You’re always welcome, Michiel ! Thanks for your dedication in chasing those rare pictures.

I believe the Stuka is Ju 87 G-2, W.Nr. 494200, photographed frequently with its location given as Pilsen.

I think that the Fw 190D-9s in #358 and #363 must be unfinished Fw 190D-13s from Weserflug!
The visible fuselage has the flat cover in front of the wind screen and the fire wall behind the engine has the missing middle part because of the engine mounted MG 151 gun.
