Blohm & Voss modification facility at Wenzendorf
 

Hi all,

As a spin-off to the Me262B-1a/U1 -nightfighter thread here's a small summary of photos and sources related to the B&V Wenzendorf modification facility.

A brief history of the site as google-translated from German:
https://translate.google.com/transla...enzendorf.html

According to RLM Acceptance records the site converted at least the following dual-controls trainers:
- Bf109G-12 = 403 pcs
- Ju88A-7 = 149 pcs
- Me210A-1/U1 = 48 pcs
- Me262B-1a = 9 pcs (between 07/44 and 11/44) + max 8 pcs (12/44 B&V+DLH total)


Sources for some postwar video-footage. The Wenzendorf modification site starts at 1:03 on both sources:

- destroyed hangars
- destroyed Bf109G-12 two-seat dual-controls trainers
- destroyed Me262B-1a two-seat dual-controls trainers

Sources for some postwar photos. Unfortunately the quality of this copy is really bad.
The interesting source document is C.I.O.S. report XXV-53: "German Aircraft Industry - Bremen-Hamburg Area" (pages 54-62):

- Me262 nose cones
- Me262 two-seater fuselages
- Me262 wings
- Me262 engines

Below also some photos from my collections.

Does this have a request or question attached?

Hi all,

No question, nor requests. Just provision of additional information related to an earlier Me262B-1a/U1 -thread.

"German Aircraft Industry - Bremen-Hamburg Area"

I read this entire document, looking for ME 262 information, but found only information I already knew. But the entire document was quite interesting!
