Hello Thomas,

Not important, maybe we don't share the same interests, those who do, understood...
I did put it for them. :D

Cheers, Franck.

PS: But you are welcome in the team if you want to share our enthusiasm.

Franck

Indeed, is a rare stuff of LG-2 , I would even name it very rare ! Thanks for your efforts bud

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

You have a point there :)

Have a great weekend!

Thomas

You're the most welcome ;).
Only planes (so much) and pilots ... Very rare indeed. JG 77 too.

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

I reviewed the posted photos ,except Brandt ( probably shot in Germany in 1939) I wasn't able to recognise the pilot depicted . There are some few shots
remarked "Ein Tommy Augefasst / Abgeschossen, on that specific chapter and while looking closer at the charred remains of the aircrew , based on his boots
( regular Soviet Army boots ) that must have been a Russian crew member rather than a Brit .How did you conclude that other JG77 photos are included too ?
was it based on that ME-109 with the II./ JG77 ( hat) insignia ?

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

I don't think there's any Russian connection with either crew or Wellington. The twisted fuselage bears the squadron codes AA which stands for 75 Squadron.

It shouldn't be too difficult to sort out which Wellington this was.

Hans

I think that the crashed plane is a Wellington: in one shot you can see the geodetical frame of the fuselage. You can note also a British roudel on the wing wreck.

Best Regards,

researcher111,

Hello! I didn't write "most probably"??... No, I didn't; ups.
Just because of tropical suits and because of that Bf 109 G "Weisse 7" photo....
And that Winkel Balken too.
Maybe I'm wrong .. But after LG 2 ... JG 77, most probably.

For 'AA': there is a British roundel on broken wing.
For Schwarze 6: that one ? (attachment)
For accident on ground: see the other side (in attachment, too.)

Last: I think we have a Rumanian officer on one photo ...

Regards, Franck.

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

Thank you, You're always welcome Thomas! :)

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

Outstanding album.

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

Superb album. And yes I thought JG 77 too because of the Gustav and the tropical attire.

Re: eBay: an amazing photo album
 

Yes Franck, you are right that's a RAF Roundel ( barely visible) but howabout the boots , these are definitely not RAF issue but look Russian to me and yes on that shot an AAR Romanian officer ...as into both posted photo the one on the top seems to have been taken at Pipera Airfield and second ( taxing accident ) both in Romania .
