Need help IDing German Prop.
A Dutch gentleman has this prop at his house and was told it belonged to a Lancaster that he witnesses crashing as a child. Obviously he has been misled as this prop is German. But what I do not know is to what type of plane it belongs. I am almost tempted to say Fw190, but I am only guessing here.
Following data is on the prop: On the prop 9-30372 211, on the base 9-27012A-4 and as the photo shows the following text is painted in red on the side: Satz-ria (or ela) Nr. 850201/1. Thanks, Danny |

Danny,
Your wooden prop blade is was for both the Fw 190 D-12 or D-13 with the Jumo 213F engine. Number 9-30372.211V was the blade's construction group number (Baugruppen Nr.) intended for equipment number (Gerate Nr.) 9-27012 A-4. It was part of the Junkers VS 9prop assembly. Hal |

Hal, thanks a million. I had this on a German forum and got no replies. Danny

Re: Need help IDing German Prop.
Danny,
You are welcome. Frankly, this is pretty esoteric material, so undoubtedly few would come forth. Sorry, I don't have data on the Satz number, but my educated guess is that the 3-letters, ria, probably identify the blade's maker, and probably too they were closely connected to Junkers. Unfortunately, my list fails to list "ria." Hal |
