Re: Trial
 

Nick,

I'm trying to upload a post with six Flickr links: a very interesting set of pictures taken at Flensburg-Weiche during Summer 1945… And no way to put the links through… I get since 12.00 a 503 service unavailable message error…

Something wrong with server?

It took me 9.30 hours to successfully upload the links in post 4…

It would be great to sort that technical glitch out… Thanks in advance!
Marc

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

Marc, Great thanks
Can not help on your tech glitc, but both Ju 188´s wrecks seem ultra rare Ju 188 D-2 from ATG, first is (D-2 U3 also?) 230774 and then the D-2 U3 W.Nr. 230756.
I knew of one U2 before but "D-2 U3" is really some rare news!
And Ju 86 was 0010 D-ALOZ "Zugspitze", thought scrapped Flensburg
(other foto of it is known before this one)
Wow - I hope that be something to your reward!

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

It sure is a great reward, Ed!
I noticed the Ju 188's with their very special stenciling under the cockpit. Glad it was of help;-). And a big thanks to John Law who uploaded those pics taken by his late father.

Cheers
Marc

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

What He 177, where? ;-)

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

Mark,

Do 217M-11 WNr. 723040 KF+JN used most probably before by Erprobungsstelle Karlshagen for Fritz X trials became repainted with British roundels for shipment to the UK. But was later scrapped on site.

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

No 3. not G-1, rather G-6 if that Jumo 213 lying in front belonged to it.

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

Hi Merlin

Post 12 - Is it possible that the Stkz is in the KE+J series rather than the KF+J series

Regards
Tom

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

Tom,

KE+JA to KE+JD were the first four Do 217K-0 aircraft.

Re: New 1945 Flensburg-Weiche pictures
 

Hi Merlin

Thanks for this - I do have these listed but there appears to be issues here with Stkz blocks for this.
I have also 4401 to 4426 as RD+JA to RD+JZ
I have other types in the KF+J series hence my question as to whether this block from 72.3001 to 72.3026 should be in the KE+J series. All of references I have to the Stkz being KF+JN the photos do not clearly show the full Stkz the E or F is unclear.

Regards
Tom

Oops sorry Ed. Looked at the nose and immediately went to He-177 without looking at post :)

Thanks Merlin.
