Stuttgart-Echterdingen, a full late 1945 set
 

Hi there Folks,

I just chanced on a full set of Stuttgart-Ectherdingen pictures, taken late 1945 by T/4 (Sergeant) Ralph E. Schuett, S/N 36772153, from Belvidere, Illinois, who was in the 3353 Quartermaster Truck Company, 54th Quartermaster Battalion. All are found via eBay auction.

This picture shows a Ju 87 D and two Bf 109's. The one behind the Ju 87 is Bf 109 K-4 W.Nr. 33x xxx "Schwarze 8", 6./ JG 27. A close-up of this bird is published in Green 2000, p. 75. In the centre, under the lone leafless tree : Bf 109 G-14/AS W.Nr. 464 642 "Weisse 10", unit unknown. A close-up of this plane can be seen in my Flickr account, courtesy of Kees Mol.

Iis this an Ar 196 seaplane or could it be an Ar 96 trainer?

The radial engines are more likely Bramo 323 and not BMW 132
