Thank, but I have´t "flugzeugfuehererschule zum einsatzverband".
Have you any photo of A6+HH in your PC?

I think Schiffer also published a translated version of this book though I don't remember the title. BTW - this is definitely not Baumbach's machine. He was in KG 30, this machine is from 1.(F)/120, a long-range recon group based in Norway. Two of its usual crew were Knight's Cross winners - pilot Hptm. Helmuth ORLOWSKI and observer Oblt. Fritz HEIDENREICH. The plane itself, Ju 88D-1 WNr. 1067, was destroyed on 7-Jan-42 in a bombing raid, presumably by the RAF.

Hi,
you can find pics of this plane in Model Art about Ju 88.
Is Ju 88 (what sub-type ?) 4D+MR Baumbach's plane ?

All the best

Thank, I found two photo in Militari XX wieku.
He had Ju-88A-4 early or A-5. These Ju-88 had identical control surface and I haven´t seen Baumbach's plane from the front.

The same Major Orlowski who was lost over the Adriatic in November 1943? (He was Kommandeur of FAG 122 at the time).

Re: Ju-88A A6+HH Baumbach
 

Yup. At least I presume its the same guy.

Meanwhile -

As I recall Urbanke did an article on one of these guys in an issue of Lw in Focus.
