Identity of Bf110 sought! Nice photos
 
Hi Guys,

Couple of pics found on German eBay a while ago, can anyone identify this particular machine and its location? Thought they might interest some fellow members.

Regards

That is Bf 110 C-1, 2N+IH of 1./ZG 1, shot down on 6th September 1939. Pilot Major Karl Hammes, the 43 year-old Staffelkapitän, was killed; his Bordfunker Ofw. Walter Steffen became a prisoner of the Poles but was later released. There are several photos of this crash site. Following the loss of Hammes, Oberleutnant Martin Lutz became Staka of 1./ZG 1.
