John, the aircraft codes are not linked to one aircraft, as one aircraft of that code was written off or lost the code would be applied to its replacement. I have note of a Ju88 of 4/KG40 code 4D+AM lost over England on 21/22-3-44 its individual werk nummer was 300500, would that link to one you are looking for,

That I didn`t know...
Make it a bit harder for me then..

Maybe if I told you that all of this aircrafts were lost in April 1940,is it easier then?

All of the aircrafts should be lost at Jonsvatnet sea in April 1940,but I only have confimed U4 + TK (17th April),6N + NH (20th April) and RO + AU(date unknown).
Have pictures of 4D + AM up side down on the iced lake.

Also looking for a ME109 that also were lost at the scene,this can be found laying up side down on a British recon photo.
A Aradao 196 were also lost in this area ,but I don`t know the year,all crew dead.

Hello...

Don't know if you've seen these pics, but there's a wealth of additional info you can see if you go to google and type this in: Jonsvatnet he111 and Ju88. The first three sites listed alone give some great photos of salvage and at least a couple of wartime pics I hadn't seen before.

The undernoted were posted here a long time back... hope they're of interest.

Kindest regards...

Paul
