Museums with Axis equipment
 

I'm compiling information on museums with Axis WW2 equipment on my site, the Axis History Factbook, and I'd appreciate any help with additions (text or photos) or corrections to the material.

The museums section can be found at http://www.axishistory.com/index.php?id=56

Thanks.

(I hope you don't mind me posting this here)

Are you familiar with Mikael Olrog's excellent site, Preserved Axis Aircraft?

The Australian War Memorial also holds some Japanese material including a composite Midget submarine made from the remains of two sunk in Sydney harbour.

Good luck with your endeavours

I'm still interested in this kind of information :-)

Marcus, since I already asked in this forum about one particular plane - an Arado Ar-196 A-3 preserved in Bulgaria, I must correct your list of countries with planes. For some more information, please visit this sites:

In general there is a very good, but a bit old book about many aviation museums in Europe in German language: "Luftfahrtmuseen Europa" by Rudolf Storck, Transpress Verlag, Berlin 1993, ISBN 3-344-70761-2.
(The Bulgarian museum from above is not included.)

Marcus-

I would be happy to send you photos and information about some of the museums here on the U.S. West Coast with Axis aircraft. All photos were taken by myself, and you (or anyone else reading this) may use the photos as you wish. One question, what size would you like the pictures to be?

I'm still very interested in additions and corrections to the list, thanks.

Hi Marcus:

For the USA section, you could add:

1. Museum of Flight, Seattle, Washington, www.museumofflight.org [Messerschmitt Bf109E-3 and Focke-Wulf FW190D-13]

2. Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum near Mcminnville, Oregon, www.sprucegoose.org [Messerschmitt Bf109G-10]

Good luck
