Unknown captured airplane 1945
 
This is an odd one, can someone please identify? Source: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Captured-Luf...item416ef7f5b7

For sure the location is not Brandenburg-Briest, as the seller claims. This airfield only 65 km southwest of Berlin was captured by Soviet forces, not by Americans. But where is it? Any clues?

Regards,
Christian

Hello Christian,

The plating suggested a Junkers design and then I found a Junkers A 50 Junior trainer, see

All the best, Marcel

Hi Marcel, and thanks for solving this puzzle! Too bad the registration is not visible, though. Or is there some other evidence on this plane out there?
